Light in the Dark Ages: The Rise and Fall of San Vincenzo Al Volturno

Rating:
Summary: Monastery Treasures
Review: One does not have to be an archeologist to appreciate this lovely book. While scholarly in its detail it is also a wonderful history about another way of life in another age. Being a Benedictine nun myself and having visited the magnificent frescoes at San Vincenzo, I can only express gratitude to Richard Hodges for making this work available to American audiences.
