Review of
The
Incredible Book of Vatican Facts and Papal Curiosities: A Treasure of Trivia,
by Nino Lo Bello ISBN 076075862X
Five out of five stars
This is a great
book of trivia, for it is packed with history about the world’s oldest
bureaucracy as well as information about the great treasures that are in
Vatican City. Some of the most precious artwork, a fortune in jewels as well as
some of the deepest of secrets are all part of the seat of power of the
Catholic Church.
While the
material will of course have a special appeal for Catholics, all people that
enjoy trivia will love the book. This is especially true for people with an
interest in historical trivia, for significant history and the Catholic Church
are intertwined.
