The three volumes contain the route description, but much more the 1,000-year history and special features (ecclesiastical art, saints, relics) of all (310) churches and chapels along the route, as well as 48 monasteries and 118 points of interest. Thus, the books are above all a church guide of the Swiss Way of St. James.

The books can be easily purchased on Amazon.

The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
