Spirit Roads, Exploring Otherworldly Routes in the Old and New Worlds - Paul Devereux

Collins & Brown, 2007. Note: This is a re-print of Paul's book "Fairy Paths & Spirit Roads" from 2003

An important and unique work that provides authentic, deeply-researched geographical information on features such as Irish fairy paths, British corpse roads, Dutch death roads, Aborigine "songlines", and Pre-Columbian shamans' routes in the Americas. It is a guidebook to the spiritual geographies of the pre-modern world. The first part of the book, Background, provides succinct chapters on the nature of the various kinds of "otherworldly routes" covered by the book, and the second part, Foreground, is a Sampler of examples of the whole range of routes, with location and access information provided. Whether an armchair traveller or someone who likes to get out and about "in the field", this unique study and guide will fascinate you. Whole new insights are revealed about the land-based spirituality of the past.
