Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Delightful Trivia!
"The Incredible Book Of Vatican Facts and Papal Curiosities" is a delightful collection of Trivia for any Catholic fan. Most of the book is divided into four topical categories. Each question is followed by a short answer, usually consisting of one or two paragraphs. The final section deals with topics which demand a longer explanation than those given in the earlier portions of the book. Whether your goal is to up the scores of your trivia team, prepare for your trip to the Vatican or just enjoy learning about the Church, this short book is a quick and entertaining read.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Very informative.
This book is loaded with trivia on the Eternal City State. The authors matter-of-fact style makes for a great read.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - What a fun and interesting book to read!!
I had a wonderful time reading about Vatican City. It is not a religious book, but a trivia book about the State of Vatican City. Want to know what mistakes Michaelangelo made in the design of St. Peter's? If a pope has ever lost his temper in public? How was the pope going to outwit Hitler? Which government has jurisdiction over the pope? This book is easy reading and very informative. I loved it!!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Everything you wanted to know...and didn't know what to ask!
You do not have to be a Catholic to find this book both entertaining and fascinating. For those who have had the opportunity to visit the Vatican, or are just curious about this most secretive of places, the book gives you intriquing insights on the people, places and personalities of those privy to the inner workings of the Holy See.
