The Power and the Glory : Inside the Dark Heart of John Paul II's Vatican
Author(s): David A. Yallop
In 1984, David Yallop's "In God's Name" changed the way that the world looked at the Vatican. In "The Power and The Glory", David Yallop returns to Rome with another explosive story: the true history of the papacy of John Paul II. From the first moment of his papacy, Karol Wojtyla sought political influence and a role on the world stage. At the dawn of the twenty-first century, he was a leader to millions of Catholics at a time of tremendous change. Promising a renewed church, he was the first media Pope and travelled around the world to preach his message. It is said that he was central in the fall of Soviet Eastern Europe, in particular within his own homeland of Poland. Now, as the second anniversary of his death the demands for John Paul's beatification and subsequent canonisation continue unabated. But has the real truth of this Papacy been revealed?
