Show Notes
While legends surround Santiago, or St. James the Elder, the historical record has very little to say about him. What do we actually know? Dr. Harold Attridge, a Sterling Professor of Divinity at Yale Divinity School, brings us up to speed on the Apostle James. Then, Merka Martin shares some stories from her recent pilgrimage on the Camino Francés. The episode concludes with some reading suggestions for fictional works set on the Camino de Santiago.
