Summary: Very, very beautiful photos!
Review: A great gift for Catholics and others. This book and especially their book on Novena prayers are two of the most precious books I've ever seen!

Summary: Travellers, historians, religious followers & artists!
Review: Holy Places is a visual delight, filled with gorgeous color photographs of 10 sacred sites around the world. It is a book about saints, prayer, miracles and recovery, art and religious history and architecture. The reader is transported to ancient Ireland, Italy, Spain, France, Mexico and New Mexico. The book is a pilgrimmage into Catholic history and devotion. I gave a copy to my elderly aunt who called me to say that she had just been to Italy and Mexico and was about to travel through Spain -- that reading the book was as good as being there (and by the way, she would try to make it to Chimayo, New Mexico). It is a concise and richly crafted book on some of the most famous holy places in the world. Who might like this book?
Travellers
Spiritual seekers
Pilgrims
Artists & art lovers
Children
Historians
Lovers of religious relics
People who like pictures I highly recommend this wonderful book.
