Produktbeschreibung
An amazing story of pilgrimage from Canterbury to Rome on horsebackfrom the heights of the Alps to the valley of the Po River. Still hooked on adventure after their long pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela, a few years later Mefo Phillips and her spotted horse Leo set off again from Canterbury, this time heading for Rome, with Mefos husband Peter once more trying to keep track of them in Bessie the Bedford horsebox. Turning her back on the main route of the Via Francigena through France and Switzerland, she opted instead for the road less traveled, a secondary pilgrim route that climbed directly over the French border pass at Mont Cenis into Italy. Their journey turned out to be far more challenging than the previous one, with no pilgrim infrastructure, incomprehensible maps, wild mountain weather followed by doldrum days in the baking Po valley, and even a heart-stopping fall down a ravine.
