“From Machu Picchu to the Louvre―the book journeys through sacred sites in art and ancient history.” ― Artnet News
“Sacred Sites celebrates how we traverse and transform the world around us through ritual and art. Compiled by Jessica Hundley, [the book] surveys a remarkable array of places and artworks through more than 400 images centered around pilgrimage, performance, and devotion.” ― This is Colossal
“A decadent feast for the eyes, laced with belladonna.” ― The New York Times
“The ‘Library of Esoterica’ acts as a bridge between the dark halls of history and the vast data at our fingertips.” ― Los Angeles Times

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this entire set
This is one book of the set but all of them are really good quality binding and full color photos.Nice size and great information.
5.0 out of 5 stars High quality
It’s absolutely gorgeous! I love these books. Really good quality for the price. I must collect them all!
5.0 out of 5 stars I like them enough to get the full set.
As far as I know, this is the 4th book in the series. The color prints they've collected are amazing, and it's quite a diverse/inclusive set of information for each book.If you are interested in the series, I would recommend picking one of the 4 that sounds most interesting to you, and if you like that one, continue on with the others. Personally I would pick Tarot first. But that is just my opinion.

Beautiful.
1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed
I absolutely love this collection and have the first 4 book so when I seen there was two more in the collection I had to have them. However this book was packaged poorly with 3 of the corners squished. I open the cover and this first page is misshapen.
1.0 out of 5 stars Not worth it
some Major sites are missing
1.0 out of 5 stars some images are not of good quality

Excellent book.
Excellent history reference book full of wonderful information.
Wonderful quality item
Wonderful quality book . I've just ordered the last of the series. All a good read for the winter season . All look good on any shelf
Absolutely stellar, perfect addition to any library
Can't say enough, so lucky to be one of the first to see and was elated to see Alex gray cosm made it into the book, rightfully so. Only wish it was bigger, longer.
Damaged corners
Both the initial and replacement order were damaged, the plastic broken and corners of the book has rhe colour worn off of it. There was only paper in the box, may have been damaged from shipping but likely in the warehouse. Returning this, hopefully the third one will be unblemished!
