This was a tie-in to a BBC television series. From Kirkus Review: "In 1971, BBC broadcast the account of a pilgrimage by Mr. Muggeridge and Dr. Vidler to the cities visited by St. Paul on his voyages through the Roman Empire. This book contains a distillation of the dialogue between Muggeridge and Vidler on that occasion along with a sampling of the photography. The photographs are stunning in both quality of reproduction and originality of subject."
This work investigates the life and enduring influence of the Apostle Paul through the lens of a modern pilgrimage across the sites of his ancient missionary voyages. The author, Malcolm Muggeridge, alongside theologian Dr. Alec Vidler, utilizes their personal travel experiences to frame a theological and historical dialogue. By revisiting the Mediterranean landscapes that shaped early Christianity, the text seeks to bridge the gap between the historical figure of Paul and the contemporary spiritual landscape of the 20th century.
What You Will Find
The book is regarded as a thoughtful, visually evocative companion to the original BBC television series, capturing the intellectual rapport between its two subjects. It serves as a reflective, accessible entry point for readers interested in the historical context of the New Testament through a mid-century lens.
