Fascinating Information
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This book takes the reader on a tour of monasteries throughout the world.... Christian, Buddhist, Muslim, Hindi, Jain, etc.. The author spent retreat time in all of these settings, and in most of them he was also able to interview residents also. The information presented is fascinating and reads very easily. The use of photographs to illustrate the text was an added bonus!
