The best book (in English) on St. Peter's Basilica...

Sometimes people ask what is the absolute best book on the Vatican Basilica and this is the answer:

Saint Peter's
The Story of St. Peter's Basilica in Rome
James Lees-Milne
Little, Brown and Company
Boston
1967
Imprimatur 1966

336 pages, glossy black and white and colour plates, a very Catholic book, complete, just the best.

It can sometimes be found in used book stores.
