Meticulously researched, this is a fascinating and unique guide to history of the Holy Grail.
The Wise King
An illuminating biography of Alfonso X, the 13th-century philosopher-king whose affinity for Islamic culture left an indelible mark on Western civilization "If I had been present at the Creation," the thirteenth-century Spanish philosopher-king Alfonso X is said to have stated, "Many faults in the universe would have been avoided."

Walk This Way
Following an unexpected discovery during a bout of lockdown-inspired spring cleaning, Duncan McNamara, soon to turn 30, leaves a distinctly average academic career for the Camino de Santiago, an ancient and dangerous trail of 500 miles across Spain's Pyrenees Mountains. He carries only a rucksack of largely useless items, and while not particularly religious, begins to count himself among the saints, sinners and scholars who have hiked the scrubland before him. His sole purpose, like theirs, is to reach the end and kneel before a Saint. Absurd, sensual and deeply poignant, the world of "The Way" provides a fascinatingly personal series of incidents to match Duncan's idiosyncratic path. Readers, who have no idea what they're getting themselves into, will find themselves cheering for this first-person adventure filled with unlikely detours.
