Description
Considered by Belloc himself, and by most critics, his greatest work, this classic book is the delightful story of the pilgrimage Belloc made on foot to Rome in order to fulfill a vow he had made to "see all Europe which the Christian Faith has saved". In his Life of Hilaire Belloc, Robert Speaight states: "More than any other book he ever wrote, The Path to Rome made Belloc's name; more than any other, it has been lovelingly thumbed and pondered. The book is a classic, born of something far deeper than the physical experience it records".
