If you're visiting Europe and have an interested in sacred sites from Glastonbury and Kildare to the Shroud of Turin or the Infant Jesus of Prague, Sacred Places Europe is well worth its reasonable price.” –Europe for Visitors "Olsen's marvelous drawings and mysterious maps enhance a package that is as bizarre as it is wonderfully accessible.
