A new full-color, luxury edition of Angels in Stone: Agustinian Churches in the Philippines tell the story on the Agustinian Order who arrived in 1565 with the Legaspi-Urdaneta expedition. It chronicles their achievements in building towns and constructing magnificent churches that survive today as living testaments to their zeal as missionaries and to their skills as church builders. The book focuses on 162 churches around Luzon and the Visayas notably the four churches cited for preservation by the UNESCO World Heritage List. Paoay in Ilocos Norte, Sta. Maria in Ilocos Sur, Miagao in Iloilo and the San Agustin Church in Intramuros.
