About this listen

When Guy Stagg decided to walk from Canterbury to Jerusalem, he spent the next 10 months following medieval pilgrim paths across 5,500 km. He began the journey after suffering several years of mental illness, hoping the ritual would heal him. Travelling alone and without support, he had to rely each night on the charity of strangers.

The Crossway is an account of Stagg's extraordinary journey. It describes the dangers he faced on the road, captures the people he met and the landscapes he experienced, offers a unique insight into contemporary faith and - most movingly - lays bare his struggle to escape the past and walk towards recovery.

I enjoyed listening to all his experiences but I hoped he would have found peace and become a Christian by the end of his pilgrimage

Disappointed by the ending

I listened on a drive to Berlin and back few weeks ago. Really enjoyed the narrative. An epic journey of discovery and observation. The characters met, the challenges faced, the geography traversed. It's a book that comes back at you when you least expect. Contrasts and comparisons.
Thank You

A great listen.

Just brilliant. The story is gripping and the narration is excellent. One of those books you just don't want to end. I rationed myself! I'd recommend this to anyone. Good luck!

Inspiring me to set off from Wales to Jerusalem in a few days. Don’t know if I will get there but I will for sure try. Thank you!
