"Following seven centuries of tradition, Pope John Paul II has declared 2000 a Jubilee year. This book takes us back to the first Holy Year, 1300, when Pope Boniface VIII promised eternal peace for the souls of all Christians who trekked to the Eternal City. Two hundred thousand pilgrims flocked to Rome in that year, viewing the sacred Christian sites that figured so prominently in their religious lives. This book takes us on the route of an imagined pilgrim of the first Jubilee, guiding us through the medieval city as she saw it and allowing us to experience its treasures and rituals."--BOOK JACKET.
