- On foot to Canterbury : a son's pilgrimage / by Haigh, Ken,1962-author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Setting off on foot from Winchester, Ken Haigh hikes across southern England, retracing one of the traditional routes that medieval pilgrims followed to the shrine of Saint Thomas Becket at Canterbury Cathedral. Walking in honour of his father, a staunch Anglican who passed away before they could begin their trip together, Haigh wonders: Is there a place in the modern secular world for pilgrimage? On his journey, he sorts through his own spiritual aimlessness while crossing paths with writers like Anthony Trollope, John Keats, Jane Austen, Jonathan Swift, Charles Dickens, and, of course, Geoffrey Chaucer. On Foot to Canterbury is part travelogue, part memoir, part literary history, and all heart."--- Subjects: Haigh, Ken, 1962-; Christian pilgrims and pilgrimages; Christian pilgrims and pilgrimages; Hiking; English literature;
