Experience the grandeur of
Rome's art, architecture, history and -- above all -- faith. For the pilgrim, Rome bears
witness to twenty tumultuous centuries of Christian history, like no other
place. The Eternal City's abundance of sacred treasures can overwhelm, however,
especially when so many tourist guides fail to focus on the faith. This is the
indispensable Guide 4 Pilgrims on Rome and the Vatican. Whether traveling
there or simply enjoying it from an armchair, pilgrims can experience the human
drama that has always defined the Eternal City: from ancient emperors and
martyrs, to Renaissance popes and artists, to the enduring legacy of Rome's
architects and saints. Christianity has always demanded Rome's attention, just
as the Eternal City has commanded the world's. Regardless of the passing of
brutal emperors and empires, however, Rome confirms that the gates of Hell have
not and shall not prevail against Christ's Church.
"This book is at the top of my list
as one of the most comprehensive Catholic travel guides to Rome.
I especially love the stunning images, interesting facts about the saints
and our Catholic faith, as well as all of the travel tips included in this book.
I am taking this book with me on all 4 of my pilgrimages to Rome this year."

“Today, as a
professional travel writer, I may have read more guidebooks than the
Holy See has had popes. I can honestly say that this [book] goes
above and beyond the call of guidebook duty. I wish it existed when I was
in Rome…. Rome and the
Vatican – Guide 4 Pilgrims is an essential companion. It could
also easily be used creatively in history or religion classes, since the
authors go back to the beginning, covering the major players in church history
and notable places in Rome with the photographs to go with them…. [W]ith this
book, you will see what most tourists miss and learn aspects of your faith you
never knew.”
