Right after the turn of the twentieth century, the brilliant Catholic author and historian Hilaire Belloc made a pilgrimage on foot from the French city of Toul to Rome. The Path to Rome is his record of that epic journey.
Considered by many to be the best and most beloved book Belloc wrote during his prolific career, The Path to Rome is an almost unclassifiable collection of delights: impressions of people and places, musings on Catholic European culture, engaging jokes, stories, and songs, and anything else Belloc thinks to share with his reader as he tramps long, lonely miles through the heart of Christendom.
The result is not only a singular example of Belloc’s writing skills but a testament to the Faith’s power to transform and sanctify human society.
