Title: Man of Peace
Product review: With access to Pope John XXIII's detailed journal and other personal archives the author, Peter Hebblethwaite a former Jesuit, provides a detailed record of the much-beloved religious leader's life. Hebblethwaite chronicles Pope John's many significant contributions to peace during his brief reign. We can see how many exploited the goodness and the kindness of Pope Roncalli during his lifetime. It seemed that His Holiness wished to set up "peace at any price" as a rule of government. We can see this from his utterance of his historic phrase, "Me, I was born to bless and not to condemn!" Which was his underlying order for the Ecumenical Council that for the first time in history limited themselves to blessings and therefore did not condemn the errors of its day.
