Each year, thousands of people walk the various pilgrim routes to Santiago de Compostela in North west Spain. This book is about the author's personal pilgrimage, following the less frequently travelled route of the Via de La Plata from Seville to Santiago, a distance of 1,006 kilometres. It's also about the people he met along the way, their stories, adventures together and most of all, the most valuable of commodities which seem so undervalued these days: humanity and friendship.
