    Synopsis

    Acclaimed photographer and anthropologist Martin Gray spent the last 20 years on an amazing pilgrimage: he visited 1,000 sacred sites in 80 countries around the world. His journey unfolds in a remarkable compilation of images that reveals just how devoutly pre-industrial cultures everywhere worshipped and respected our Earth. From the Western Wall to the Great Mosque of Damascus, Mt. Olympus to Assisi, Tibet’s Potala Palace to Hawaii’s Mauna Kea, Teotihuacán in Mexico to the Golden Temple in Amritsar, these are the awe-inspiring places from which all the world’s great religions sprang, along with our finest culture, art, and architecture. Gray’s stunning photographs and fascinating text provide unique insight into why these powerful holy places are the most venerated and visited sites on the entire planet. Maps adapted from the National Geographic Society show the locations of all the sites presented, and a thorough appendix includes a comprehensive list of over 500 of the world’s sacred sites.

    February 23, 2009: Sacred Earth is the most beautiful single-source book that I have seen on the spiritual power of special places on our planet. Sensitive souls will be receptive to both the photos and the informative message of this enlightened seeker and photographer. He has gone on a twenty year quest, which he has shared in a most meaningful way. In my travels, I have also felt the special sanctity of certain places. This is a book that you can revisit day after day.
