Explore some of the world's most beautiful churches in more than 200 color photographs--including chapels, basilicas, and cathedrals dating from the Middle Ages to today.

From early basilicas to magnificent medieval cathedrals, from simple churches in rural Africa to 21st-century award-winning designs, this stunning volume reveals the different approaches to faith across the centuries, shifting architectural styles, and the effect of history on Christianity--and how Christianity affected history in return. Encompassing Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, Coptic, Lutheran, Christian Scientist, Baptist, and Calvinist beliefs, the churches include stone and wooden structures; ones that have been knocked down and rebuilt, or even moved from one location to another; buildings cut into rock and earth; and some constructed in some of the least hospitable locations on Earth.
