    Indispensable

    Writing guides to the Christian sites of Rome began in the fourth century. A.B. Barber has now produced the indispensable guide. Packed with practical information, historical details, and charming anecdotes Pilgrim’s Rome will inform, entertain, and inspire.

  3. “Blue Guides are the best of the best.”

    From amazon.com: “I’m not Catholic but I am Christian and wanted a book that gave fantastic Biblical history of Rome. This book is unbiased, detailed, and very easy to read and enjoy. Next purchase Blue Guide Venice and Rome.”
