The Pilgrim's Guide to Rome (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from The Pilgrim's Guide to Rome At the request of the Executive Committee of the Catholic Association I have willingly undertaken to translate the Abbe Laumonier's "Guide du Pelerin a Rome," and adapt it for the use of the large number of English-speaking pilgrims likely to visit the Eternal City under the auspices of the Association during this Anno Santo, or Holy Year. I append a translation of the preface to the Abbe's excellent work by M. Leon Harmel, as it contains information useful to the reader, and is full of sentiments to which we heartily subscribe.
