Book Review of When in Rome: A Journal of Life in Vatican City

When in Rome: A Journal of Life in Vatican City
Turtle avatar reviewed on + 17 more book reviews


I wish I had read this book prior to going to Rome, but it was still great still the after the trip. Not a travel guide, but with so many descriptive passages of the sites and ramblings of the author through the Vatican and Rome it was a delightful reminder of the wonderful place it is. Having been there only a year before reading the book, it was fun to have real memories attached places the author goes. The inside information on the workings, politics and quirks of "Holy" City were quite interesting.
