"
Cesar Guillen Nunez has written a very interesting and much-needed book. For non-specialists, this is a fascinating glimpse into Jesuit operations in Asia in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, and it will be very welcome also to specialists in architecture of the early modern world. He has set the stage for the building very well." – Catherine Zerner, Professor of History of Art and Architecture, Brown University
 

- Guides the readers to Macao's baroque scenic spot, Ruins of St. Paul (
大三巴), and explores anew the now vanished but once renowned Church.
- Imaginatively reconstructs the Church's ground plan, architecture and decoration in the light of new information in original documents found in archives and libraries.
- Beautifully illustrated with fine quality images from art and photo collections in the U.K. and Macao.
Cesar Guillen Nunez is currently Research Fellow and Art Historian at the Macao Ricci Institute. He is a specialist in colonial Spanish and Portuguese art history.
