The Tomb of St. Peter
It was always known that the Church of St. Peter, Rome, was orientated in a special way, which tradition claimed marked the exact place of the martyr's tomb. Since 1939 excavations have been in progress to discover what can be proved by archaeology.
In June John Irving visited Rome with a tape recorder to find out the results of these excavations.
