Editorial Reviews

I ordered Giorgio's book, Uncovering the Paradox Within the Archives of the Holy Shroud Guild. This is a must-have book for anyone interested in the historical panorama of the Shroud research. I am only up to 1977 but it is fascinating. Taking many notes! Kudo's Giorgio! You spent endless hours going through the archives to create this book. Thanks for such an important contribution to Shroud research.

In addition to the amazing details of what happened behind the scenes in 1978 and 1988, in the book I appreciated other details: the Italian roots of Giorgio, his approach to the eternal city, the relationships between father and children. All very instructive and full of observations on character and human nature. An inspired book.
