I did a quick search and didn't see that anyone had posted this...

If you have purchased the 2015 edition of John Brierley's guidebook, 'A Pilgrim's Guide for the Camino de Santiago', for the Camino Frances, take a quick look through it and be sure it has all its pages.

I just got my copy in the mail from Amazon and it's missing pages 193-216. Those pages cover three stages, from Villadangos del Paramo to Ponferrada - some important information missing, including the Cruz de Hierro!

Hopefully if your book is missing pages you can resolve it before you go to walk your Camino...

Wishing you a good Way,
Nancy

Receive the 2015 issue from Amazon three weeks ago. It's all there. Perhaps a fluke, but thanks for the head's up!

Thank you.
Good old military page-check action. That is exactly what we were required to do each time a new publication was received, we did a page-check, and on the "changes page" we wrote our name and the date the page-check was conducted. I did check my copy of Brierley (2015) upon receipt, and it had all the pages.
Thanks again.

It was probably just a bad batch that got sent to Amazon. I hope there weren't too many copies missing pages!
