Guidebook questionnaire		  

Almost every peregrino who walks one or another of the Caminos uses a guidebook. And while we know of many, we would like to enlist your help to fill in the gaps in our knowledge. To help would-be peregrinos in the process of selecting one (or more), we are soliciting user's suggestions of and opinions about guidebooks for the various routes to Santiago as well as for other pilgrimage destinations.

The information will eventually be posted here on the website and it will be integrated into our page of Camino-related books.

So help us to help other pilgrims select the guide or guides that will work best for them! To participate in this project, you can fill in and submit the form below or you can download a PDF version that can be mailed in. In either case, complete a separate form - either the form below or a downloaded PDF - for each separate guidebook you wish to submit and rate .

If you would rather sit down with pencil and paper to complete the form, you can download a PDF version. Again, if you wish to rate more than one book, simply print multiple copies of the form, one copy per suggestion. After completing written forms, you can mail them to us at:
