My favorites are the older books if you can find them. Walter Starkie, Jonathan Sumption. They are history scholars. Pilgrim Stories has a range of viewpoints-- I forget the author.
Yes! Jennifer Lash was her pen name and it is the book that set me on my path toward the Camino many years later. She began in northern France but she did not walk due to her health.
The Pilgrimage Road to Santiago is a big book. I bought a kindle version and put it on my iPod. I used the iPod for email, camera and books. No music, no phone.
