The Mystery of the Shroud of turin: - The Case for Authenticity - Paperback

by John C. Iannone (Author)

No cloth has been so studied as the Holy Shroud. Is it the ancient burial cloth of Jesus providing the story of his passion, death and resurrection? What do modern blood and DNA studies reveal? What do pathologists say about the wounds and weapons that created them? Are there images of flowers and pollen that trace the Shroud's history? New forensic evidence is discussed in this fascinating journey. John C. Iannone is a Christian writer and lecturer who has studied the Shroud for 39 years. He has done over 350 presentations on the Shroud at Churches and schools of all denominations around the USA, Canada and Rome. He viewed the Shroud extensively in 1998 at the invitation of Cardinal Saldarini and spoken on Vatican Radio, PBS and EWTN. Having earned an M.A. in Religious Studies at the Catholic U. in Washington, D.C, he did additional studies at Union Theological, Fordham and Columbia Universities in New York City.
