Hello all,
I am unsure whether or not this has been asked previously, but there is no harm in asking again!
Anyway, I really want to be immersed in the culture around me while on my Camino next year, and knowing me, I would deeply regret just walking by a major historical area or landmark without realizing it.
So what guide book, regardless of weight, is the best/most in depth when it comes to cultural and historical notes? I have the Brierley guide so I don't need a book with a lot of maps or albergue listings. If I can find a historical/cultural guidebook, it would make my Camino feel much more complete and enriching.
Thanks! Buen camino!
