In 376 pages with a wealth of coloured photographs, plans and drawings, the book records the age-long history of the Oecumenical Patriarchate, from the beginning of the Byzantine era (A.D. 330) to the present time, and relates its struggles in accomplishing its holy mission through the centuries. The volume includes descriptions of the celebrated Byzantine monuments of Constantinople, where the Oecumenical Patriarchate has been seated since the time of its foundation. The remarkable illustrations of the magnificent ancient buildings, the exquisite mosaics and wall paintings, the fine icons, illuminated manuscripts and various objects of ecclesiastical art are matched by most interesting texts for the general reader as well as the specialist".
