Looking for Brierly Guide...

[ritaj]

Hola! We're finding that the Brierly Guide to the Camino Portugues is startingly expensive ($37 on Amazon for 2009 edition) and am wondering if anyone out there has a copy they would like to sell to us? We live in Massachusetts and would love your copy, with odd notes and comments (or not!)

Thank you Anniesantiago -- we were directed to ABE Books and found it there for a similar price! It will be great to read in advance even if we don't use it on the Camino.

I paid $38 Canadian for my 2014 version, but I believe Ivar sells them. But once you get into it, you will soon realize the detail and work that went into it. I didn't hesitate to purchase it, but do agree for a 5-yr old version, that does seem a bit much.

I have the guide as I plan to hike Porto to Santiago I May, 2016. It is not for sale, but I also have a copy of Brierly's maps of the Camino Portuguese (2015), which is for sale. I am not sure why I bought it, senility I guess. It is a nice book, but is not necessary since I have the guide. It includes the same maps as the guide, uses the same symbols, includes albergues and other lodging info etc. It does not include detailed info about history, towns, etc. I will sell it to anyone interested for $12 including postage. (It cost $18 without shipping costs.) It is 88 pages as compared with the Guide's 198 pages.

Ivar - you have guides?
Have I been sleeping?
I did not know this.

For all those whom what I gather, have received immense help from the guides and the many, many positive comments I keep reading, I have never seen one negative comment…… I can't even imagine the work that goes into them.
