Περιγραφή
Σύνοψη:Unlike some other works on Pius XII that look only at his record regarding the Jews during the period of Nazism, Robert A. Ventresca introduces his readers to the full life and career of Eugenio Pacelli. This gives his volume an in-depth perspective on Pius XII's response to the Nazi effort to exterminate the Jews of Europe—a view often lacking in more restricted accounts of his papacy. The more complete picture of Eugenio Pacelli's life makes this volume one of the best studies currently available., Ventresca opens his volume with an examination of Pacelli's early upbringing in Rome, where even as a child he manifested a taste for the diplomatic world he observed through his father's role in Italian politics.
