<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>First published in 1998 and now updated with a new preface by the author, The Art of Pilgrimage is a sacred travel guide in book form that is full of inspiration for the spiritual traveler. Award-winning writer and filmmaker and host of the acclaimed Global Spirits series seen on PBS and Link TV, Phil Cousineau weaves stories, myths, parables, and quotes from famous travelers with practical suggestions and accounts of modern-day pilgrims to show that there is something sacred waiting to be discovered in virtually every journey. Connecting these voices is a series of meditations that suggest different ways to practice what pilgrims and poets have done for centuries, to see with the eyes of the heart. With more than 70 illustrations, this book is for the traveler who longs for something more than diversion and escape. The Art of Pilgrimage shows that every journey can be sacred, soulful, and transformative if it is undertaken with a desire for spiritual risk and renewal. Whether traveling to Mecca or Memphis, Stonehenge or Cooperstown, ones journey becomes meaningful when the travelers heart and imagination are open to experiencing the sacred.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The Spiritual Traveler's Travel Guide</b><br><p>"His book on pilgrimage is one of the greatest travel books I have ever read." ―<b>Peter Feibleman</b>, author of <em>Lilly: Reminiscences of Lillian Hellman</em><br></p><p><b>#1 Bestseller in Atlases & Maps</b><br></p><p><b>The classic guide to making travel meaningful.
