This is a short book (only 102 pages) that contains a lot of information about the bones of St Peter- how they were lost and found and lost and found again. I really like how the story is written - it switches between the archeological digs to the history of St Peter's life and other more modern information. I think it if were organized differently - with all the information on the archeological dig, it might get a tad bit boring. But with it woven together the way it is, it really works.
I enjoyed the book and learned a lot along the way. I think it was the perfect length and contained the right amount of detail.
This is the second book I've read by Thomas Craughwell. The first was Saints Behaving Badly, which is another great book!
Blogging for Books provided this book to me for free in exchange for an honest review.
