The Jubilee Guide to Rome: The Four Basilicas, the Great Pilgrimage

Rating:
Summary: A perfect companion on a religious pilgrimage to Rome
Review: The Jubilee Guide to Rome focuses on the four great basilicas of Rome and how a visit to these churches can be an integral part of a Christian's preparation for the Jubilee Year. Through exquisite photography and descriptive text, the authors point out details that the untrained eye would miss during a visit to these churches. The section on St. Peter's Basilica is especially informative - it weaves the architectural and spiritual details together as one. I wish I had found this book before leading my first pilgrimage to Rome. It will be a regular part of our spiritual preparation from here on. (And the size is perfect to tuck in a purse, pocket, or fanny pack!)
