Back in print after 15 years! The Definitive Catholic Tour guide to Rome. Can't afford to go to Rome? Discover the Holy City from the comfort of your home... A guided tour of fifty-one of the most important churches in Rome. Includes a history of each church, descriptions of the interior and exterior, a numbered floor plan, photographs, and details of the church's spiritual, architectural, and artistic treasures. Whether you plan on visiting Rome and using this as a guide or reading it to learn about the "Eternal City," this book offers the modern pilgrim essential information on the fifty-one most significant churches in the city. Special treatment is given to St. Peter's Basilica, St. John Lateran, St. Mary Major, St. Paul Outside-the-Walls, and St. Lawrence Outside-the-Walls. "I have been to Rome 8 times, and this book comes with me every time! The floor plans for 50 of the most popular churches in the city of Rome are laid out for you, as well as what to see while you're in there. The author even thought to make the highlights of each church into a 'walking tour', so you're seeing the items in the order you'd be walking it, rather than criss-crossing inside every church. It give the history of the building as well as the names and dates of great artwork to be found." "This is a monumental work by Father Tylenda, S.J. and it is such a pity that it has been out of print for so many years now. There is nothing else like it. Each church is chronicled beginning with a floor plan, which takes the reader into a mini-tour of each church, position by position. The detail is astounding. The problem is, it has been out of print for over 15 years and now all you can find are outrageously priced copies."
