I agree.  A few weeks ago when I set out to purchase books about the Camino,
I read the negative Amazon review and paid more for an alternative book--
based entirely on the negative review on Amazon. If you have read/used the
Brierley book, please do future Camino pilgrims a favor and write a positive
review.  I would have purchased the Brierley book had it not been for that
negative review - which was only one of two reviews.

Several people commented that they had used the Brierley book and found it a
good guide to the Camino.  Please consider adding a review on Amazon for it
and for any other new book you have found useful.  As a single book
publisher I can say that independent reviews are very important, and the
only thing that counteracts a bad review is to have multiple good reviews. I
review every new Camino or hiking related book that I buy, unless it already
has multiple consistent reviews.
