. Van Dam Street Smart Rome
City Travel Guides > Books > Vatican
from: Vandam
2007-12
Ok,I'm almost two years late with my review of this splendid little book,as it was ostensibly intended as a devotional,literary companion for those folks who were lucky enough to have travelled to the eternal city during the Jubilee year of 2000.I never made the pilgrimage myself but made sure to snap up this book as well as the equally desirable and rewarding "Pilgrims in Rome" as soon as they hit the shelves of my local bookshop. To be sure,a lot of the content of the former especially,is tied chronologically into the Jubilee "Stations of prayer" that took place at the major basilicas,churches and catacombs.Yet,much else within it's 250 odd pages is well worth having as a source of present and future interest.For one ...

. Inside the Vatican

by: Bart McDowell
June 27, 2002
If you can get this book used for under $10 dollars AND... You are interested in the whole workings of the Vatican National Geographic sytle, buy it it, is a great book from that perspective. It is not an over $20 dollar art book because a large number of pages which could have been used for images are wasted on oversize text. Five pages of the books text could have fit on one page. The photographs are great, but they are of everything including wasted full page close ups of guards. If you want a general book on the vatican this book delivers......but if you thought that "Inside the Vatican" meant a lot of art you might not see otherwise this is not the right book for the price. It is ... Read More:

. Art & History: Rome & the Vatican

by: Collective Collective
March 15, 2006
This Jubilee Edition of Art and History of Rome is much expanded and improved over the last one I bought eight years ago. There are many more pictures, although perforce smaller, and it's well organized by districts of the city as well as the major section devoted to the beautifully spiffed up religious sites. They've taken a page from Dorling Kindersley's guides by adding street-by-street views with little buildings drawn in. Also added are detailed sidebars of relevant historical information to put the sights in context. Overall, a very handsome and worthwhile book for prospective or recent visitors to Rome.
