The latest edition of "the most comprehensive single-volume history of the popes," updated to cover the election of Pope Francis (Sunday Telegraph).
This engrossing book, from a professor of the history of Christianity at Cambridge, encompasses the extraordinary story of the papacy, from its beginnings to the present day, as empires rose and fell around it. This new edition covers the unprecedented resignation of Benedict XVI, and the historic election of the first Argentinian pope.
