Soldier of Christ

- The Life of Pope Pius XII

About Soldier of Christ

Soldier of Christ reveals a paradoxical figure: a prophetic reformer of limited vision whose leadership stimulated the emergence of a global Catholicism while sowing doubt and dissension among some of the church's most faithful servants. The Cold War and Pius XII's manner of engaging with the modern world defined his pontificate, Ventresca argues.
