More about the book

Focusing on the actions of Pius XII during World War II, the book portrays him as a hero who risked his life to save approximately 800,000 Jews from Nazi extermination. It highlights his efforts to provide asylum in the Vatican and the recognition he received from Jewish leaders post-war. The narrative addresses the vilification he faced, particularly due to Rolf Hochhuth's play, which misrepresented his legacy. Ultimately, the book seeks to restore his reputation and critiques the broader attacks on the Church and Christian moral teachings.
