Description

This Easter, get to know some of the patron saints of Italy. Author Tim Egan tells us how walking a medieval pilgrim route from Canterbury to Rome gave him time to think about the religion he was brought up with. And author Peter Manseau examines the role of religious relics, and why seeing them in person has been a goal for millions of people over the centuries.
