Description:
Lives of the Popes is the most thorough, vivid, and fascinating history of the papacy available. Renowned Catholic commentator Richard McBrien offers a fresh, intelligent look at each of the 262 popes, including:
-- The Apostle Peter, the first pope, in his singular role as Vicar of Christ
-- Formosus, the pope whose corpse was exhumed, dressed in full vestments, and subjected to a mock trial for papal misdeeds
-- Boniface, elected pope after having been defrocked twice for immorality
-- John XXIII, perhaps the most beloved pope in all of history
-- John Paul II, the present Bishop of Rome
