About this book
Butler's travel book of 1881 follows his walks through Piedmont and the Canton Ticino, the Italian and Swiss country on the southern side of the Alps. It looks at mountain villages, their chapels and the sanctuaries that give the book its name, with a mild sympathy for Roman Catholic institutions and some sharp remarks on Protestantism.
This edition is the enlarged one of 1913, with the author's revisions, an index and an introduction by R. A. Streatfeild. Butler also wrote Erewhon and The Way of All Flesh.
