Relics 

"The Shroud of Turin is either the most awesome and instructive relic of Jesus Christ in existence - showing us in its dark simplicity how He appeared to men - or it is one of the most ingenious, most unbelievably clever, products of the human mind and hand on record. It is one or the other; there is no middle ground."

With this extraordinary statement, John Walsh prefaces his fascinating story of the cloth which has been said to be the burial shroud of Jesus Christ. he has presented its entire history from its first appearance to its present enshrinement at the Cathedral of St. John in Turin, Italy. He reports factually all the raging controversy that has for years centered around its authenticity, gathering every available shred of evidence to document this astounding story.

The Shroud is truly an absorbing and suspenseful account of one of the greatest mysteries of Christendom.

"Walsh has written what is, without doubt, the best popular treatment available on the Holy Shroud of Turin . . . [It is] a suspense story that holds the reader's attention to the very last page." The Sign
