Carla MackeyCarla Mackey - Travel
Island author, Carla Mackey, has invited us to take a walk--in Italy! Her book Via Francigena, A Tuscan Pilgrimage recounts her 235 mile "walk "from Lucca to Rome on a section of the ancient pilgrim route that stretches from Canterbury, England, to Rome. Her journal and guidebook (perfect size to fit in a pack) will help prepare you for your own journey with detailed information about the route, its history, and why it is now one of the most popular caminos in Europe. In 2017 Carla walked this section and was inspired to write the kind of detailed and illustrated guidebook that she wished she’d had on her journey.  Bon voyage to all our patrons who are inspired by Mackey to make their own pilgrimage whether on foot or by armchair!
