520    "From St. Peter's Basilica in Rome to Notre-Dame in Paris,
       Christian churches represent some of our most significant 
       architectural achievements, designed to evoke wonder and 
       awe.  In a breathtaking visual to evoke wonder and awe. In
       a breathtaking visual tour through some of the world's 
       most revered religious landmarks, this volume reveals 
       original views of architectural icons, such as Basilica de
       la Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, while also shedding light
       on lesser-known sacred spaces, such as Heddal Stave Church,
       the largest of Norway's beautiful wooden churches. 
       Guillaume de Laubier offers unprecedented access to the 
       most stunning spiritual sites, with more than 200 
       photographs that showcase dramatic soaring ceilings, 
       majestic facades, and towering spires, alongside intricate
       decorative details. With this insightful text and detailed
       captions, Jacques Bosser delves into the stories of the 
       design, construction, evolution, and resilience of these 
       churches, which often span centuries and feature a 
       fascinating cast of historical figures. Whether Catholic, 
       Protestant, or Orthodox made of wood, stone, concrete, or 
       glass; Roman, Gothic, Baroque, or modern, the places of 
       worship featured in [this book] present a unique and 
       vibrant portrait of our architectural, cultural, and 
       spiritual history."-- Jacket.
