The 9th edition the Lightfoot Guide will let you complete the journey your way.
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
It was a turmoil of feelings arriving before the cathedral.....quite emotional to deal and recapture all the totally genuine fellow walkers....

.....met Pierre by coincidence 1 hour after arrival....he did not speak a word of english but managed through a another frenchman to convey the importance of his sitdown with me.....he totally cracked up in tears and I suddenly understood/got a glimpse of his struggles.....by his reaction it was quite clear that he had been through his share of hardship....

....the Camino is not easy, but I never thought it would bee sooo tuff at times....glad to finish and not bug under for a early return home....with dismay and frustration onboard

Here is Diego at his arrival 45 min after myself....not knowing me filming...

What a lovely way to thank your fellow pilgrims. I loved your video. I can't wait to do my first camino in the spring 2017. Very exciting. I'm sure there will be doubts along the camino. Your video inspired me. Thank you! Congratulations

The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
What a wonderfull way of giving thanks. Are right now in the beginning of planning my own camino in may 2017, and I am really looking forward to meet new friends and also be able to be one.
 
@maevlilu I will be starting May 3rd so perhaps we will see each other. Best of luck with your preparation.
I will be starting May 21. I have 6 week free from my work, I think that gives me enough time, and perhaps also time to go to Finisterre. Good luck to you too.
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
I will be starting May 21. I have 6 week free from my work, I think that gives me enough time, and perhaps also time to go to Finisterre. Good luck to you too.
I will also be heading to Finisterre. I am looking forward to taking my time and enjoying the experience.
