Description: With an eye for the off-beat and the comic, Tom Davies wanders across wonderfully evocative landscapes, describing the characters he meets, the mountains he climbs and some of the inspiring and tawdry places he visits. In this modern pilgrimage around the holy places of Britain and Ireland, Tom Davies follows in the footsteps of medieval pilgrims and finds that the spirit of pilgrimage and the faithfulness that inspires it are far from dead. An entertaining odyssey to many far-flung shrines, where holiness still abides. Chapters include:
-- The Kingdom of the Queen of Ice
-- "Half Church of God Half-Castle 'Gainst the Scots"
-- Child of the Hebridean Winds
-- The Toughest Pilgrimage in the World
-- The Fair Flower of Wales
-- Lost on the Way
