The War And Papal Intrigue

""The War and Papal Intrigue: How the New Pope Talked Peace and Worked for War"" by Joseph McCabe is a historical account of the role played by the Vatican in World War I. The book explores the actions of Pope Benedict XV, who spoke publicly about the need for peace but privately worked to support the war effort. The author examines the political and religious motivations behind the Vatican's actions, including the desire to maintain its power and influence in Europe. McCabe also discusses the impact of the war on the Catholic Church and the role of individual Catholics in the conflict. This book provides a fascinating insight into the complex web of politics and religion that shaped the course of World War I and the role of the Vatican in this pivotal moment in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
