Holy Crosses & Nazi Flags: Pope Benedict XVI and The Catholic Church
by Garry O'Connor
Price: $9.99 USD. 67970 words.
Published by Amolibros on September 5, 2010. Nonfiction.
Holy Crosses & Nazi Flags shows for the first time in fascinating detail the impact on Pope Benedict XVI of his early years during the rise and fall of Hitler’s Third Reich. Concentrating as Garry O’Connor does on that period, the portrait reveals that underneath Benedict is in many ways an entirely different being from the one he is generally supposed to be (and often demonised as).
