SHAMELESS PLUG

It's not a Nellie Bly topic, but as the site creator I feel I have the right to plug my new book.
In a City well known for its rich history and elegant architecture, St. Andrew Catholic Church stands out as one of Pasadena's artistic treasures - it is quite certainly one of the most beautiful churches in California. Created to honor the 125th anniversary of the founding of St. Andrew Parish, Tower of Pasadena celebrates the church's art and architecture with lush, colorful photography and engaging text.
Author Tri Fritz outlines St. Andrew's history and introduces readers to the artisans, builders, designers, pastors and restoration experts who have worked together over the decades to create the masterpiece that today serves as a worship and community center for a thriving parish. Photographer David Crane showcases the building's design and the church's art collection with an eye for color, light and detail, not to mention the ability to photograph artworks located in the most inaccessible of locations.
From the murals of acclaimed Italian artist Carlo Wostry to the architectural lines inspired by Rome's Santa Sabina and Santa Maris Cosmedin, St. Andrew Church is a Pasadena landmark, a destination of artistic and architectural significance, and one of the most beautiful places to worship in California.
"This book highlights one of Pasadena's most prominent works of art and demonstrates in a single stroke why the city is known as a center for arts and culture." Bill Bogaard - Mayor, City of Pasadena
