Pilgrim's Guide to Planet Earth: A New Age Traveler's Handbook & Spiritual Directory

A directory published in 1981 of shrines, temples, churches, monasteries, holy places, spiritual and New Age teachings. It covers some 50 countries. It also cites schools, publications, communes, food stores, and vegetarian and macrobiotic restaurants and offers useful advice to international travelers (pilgrims) on the customs and facilities of unfamiliar countries and cultures. The guide was published by Spiritual Community Publications, formerly of San Rafael, California. Several years after the guide appeared Spiritual Community Publications went out of business, and no one has attempted an update of the original directory.
