Shikoku is a compelling account that blends the essence of pilgrimage, the beauty of self-discovery and the enduring allure of Japan's people, culture and heritage. In this fully updated edition, stunning colour photography and illustrations accompany a lyrical narrative to offer a fully immersive experience. The result is an unforgettable and visually charming travelogue that captures the heart and imagination of the seeker and traveller in us all.
