SynopsisIn 1939, a team of workers beneath the Vatican unearthed an early Christian grave. This surprising discovery launched a secret quest that would last decades--a quest to discover the long-lost burial place of the Apostle Peter. The incredible, sometimes shocking, story of the 75-year search and its key players has never been fully told until now. now., In 1939, a team of workers beneath the Vatican unearthed an early Christian grave. This surprising discovery launched a secret quest that would last decades - a quest to discover the long-lost burial place of the apostle Peter. From earliest times, Christian tradition held that Peter - a lowly fisherman from Galilee, whom Christ made leader of his Church - was executed in Rome by Emperor Nero and buried on Vatican Hill. But his tomb had been lost to history. Now, funded anonymously by a wealthy American, a small army of workers embarked on the dig of a lifetime. The incredible, sometimes shocking, story of the seventy-five-year search and its key players has never been fully told - until now. The quest would pit one of the twentieth century's most talented archaeologists - a woman - against top Vatican insiders. The Fishermans Tomb is a story of the triumph of faith and genius against all odds. Book jacket.

Good read. Inspiring read, Quite revealing of less known side of Pope Pius XII.
Study the diagrams in the footnotes first to better follow the reading of the story. It was actually thrilling to read the words 'Peter is here' and 'Peter is within'. They take you by surprise and raise your emotions in a wonderful way. I was at peace after reading this book. It is good to know he is there, inspiring the faithful.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
