All Roads Lead to Rome

The book of the Holy Year by bestselling author Andreas Englisch: the final volume of the Rome Trilogy. At full speed along the pilgrims' road: eleven riddles lead along winding routes to Rome-and deep into the history of Italy. Pilgrims or plunderers, emperors or mendicant friars, driven by the search for power, wealth, salvation, or love-travelers have been drawn to Rome for thousands of years. In his new book, Italy expert Andreas Englisch tells their stories while recounting his own thrilling journey, accompanied by Sue, a rather unusual travel companion. From Merano in South Tyrol, past Lake Garda, Verona, and Tuscany, all the way to Rome-the eternal destination of pilgrims-the two must solve riddles and decipher clues along the way. All Roads Lead to Rome is a lively treasure hunt through Italy's culture and history and at the same time a declaration of love for the country that has captivated Andreas Englisch for nearly four decades.

Andreas Englisch has lived in Rome for three decades and is considered one of the best-informed journalists on the Vatican. His ten books have all been bestsellers in Germany. His successful Rome Trilogy is being published sequentially by Parkum.
