“[St Peter's], a stimulating perambulation around this vast expanse of sacred space in the company of a sophisticated guide...joins other outstanding titles in [the] Wonders of the World series, fast becoming something of a wonder itself, with its elegant design, its scholarly enthusiasm, and its respect for the general reader. Like the best guides, it makes one long to visit the place in question, armed with book in hand.”
