Sightseeing in Christendom

In Holy Places of Christendom, Stewart Perowne takes us on a very pleasing journey to many of the important sites of Christian pilgrmage. Beginning with those relating to the life of Jesus and the Apostles and moving through important sites in the Church's history, Perowne gives a history of each site and we are provided with wonderful and at times breathtaking photographs. There is a good balance between East and West and over different time periods. Although some may howl because a particular favorite place was not included, in this type of "coffee table" book geared to a general audience we should not expect it to be exhaustive. As a nice read on some important places in the history of the Church, Holy Places of Christendom is highly recommended.
