It is 24 pages in length, with an informative text, and a superb array of fine color, as well as black-and-white, halftone photographs; there is one excellent ground plan on the verso of the front cover. The front cover has a color photo of the front facade of the Cathedral, while the rear cover presents a view of the church from the south.
