The Great Westward Walk: From the Front Door to the End of the Earth(2017)by Antxon(Bolitx)Gonzalez Gabarain and Rebekah Scott

¡°The Great Westward Walk¡± is the long-awaited English translation of ¡°El Gran Caminante,¡± the best-selling contemporary Spanish narrative of the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage.

The tale is told by ¡°Bolitx,¡± a Basque pilgrim who walked in 2008 from his hometown on the Cantabrian Sea along a disused pilgrim trail, joining ¡°the Mighty Camino Frances¡± in Santo Domingo de la Calzada. Along the Way to Santiago he spins colorful tales of family life in a Basque village: ghost trains, kindly nuns, and card-shark grannies; as well as his daily dealings with pilgrims: the pot-smokers, saints, liars, and scholars who share his journey.

Peppered with camino history never before seen in English; it¡¯s an unforgettable view into the character of a witty soul both Spaniard and Basque.

¡°The Great Westward Walk¡± was this young author¡¯s great and final work: he finished the written journey three days before ALS ended his life at age 41.
