Yesterday, I laid hands on the book in all its glory and was quite bowled over. It includes images of the main windows with a legend indicating their position and detailed shots of faces and symbols. The biographical sketches of the biblical figures and saints depicted include wise words on how this inspiring art calls us to renewal now, seventy-five years after the chapel was opened.

Panes of Glory
, a lavishly illustrated hardcover coffee-table book, shares in loving detail the treasures of faith and art found in the
magnificent stained glass windows of St. Thomas Aquinas Chapel.

Since its publication,
academics, librarians, church historians and theologians as well as lay people have discovered this 216-page book to be of historical, doctrinal, and spiritual value. Artists and art lovers revel in the intimate views of the windows, the lustrous colours, and the explanations of the saints and the religious symbols.
