Atlas of Places that Could or Should have existed on the Camino de Santiago Jeffery Barrera

In this Atlas you will discover 37 places on the Camino de Santiago in Spain, each presented with a map, illustration and a short descriptive text. Some of the places exist and all of them could or should have existed; as all the stories in this Atlas stem from facts, and these facts have been interpreted with the aim of evoking rather than informing. The first published Atlas was given the title of Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. Translated into English, the title reads: The Theatre of the World. I cannot be more in agreement with this view of the world; and the Camino de Santiago offers an exceptional setting for the actors and actresses that had the opportunity, if only briefly, to play a part in this production.
