| Publisher Description: Join Belloc on a Pilgrimage to Rome The Path to Rome is one of the most well-loved travel books of the past century. Legendary writer Hilaire Belloc tells of his walk from Southern France to Rome. But it is so much more than a travelogue. It is a history of Europe, and exploration of the English language, and journey to Christ and His Church. The Path to Rome is both the story of Hilaire Belloc and his path to becoming one of the most celebrated writers of the modern era; and the story of us as Christians, navigating the divide between history and our own age as we seek Christ. Here, discover Belloc's undying love for Europe and for the Church, which will reinvigorate your own love for Western Civilization and Catholicism. |
