Are there any books on Catholic folk beliefs or nature-based Catholic spirituality? I really like a lot of the meme ecological writers posted on this board, but I don't really like their completely anti-metaphysical philosophical outlook. I know Pope Francis wrote a little bit about protecting the environment which I think is great, but I was moreso interested in books talking about nature as a support for spiritual realization. I was reading a book by Evola where he described how Alpine villagers used to put stations of the cross on the top of various mountain peaks and how the mountain climb was both spiritual and physical catharsis. Those sort of stories I think are really interesting, but nowadays there seems to be much less of this land to spirit tie. I was hoping there may be some books that either talk about things like pilgrimages, Catholic relationship to the land, folk beliefs about certain saints with their homeland, relationship between the faith & industrialization, etc.
