Vatican Secret Diplomacy by Society Of Jesus New England
In the corridors of the Vatican on the eve of WWII, American Catholic priest Joseph Patrick Hurley found himself in the midst of secret diplomatic dealings and intense debate. Hurley's ideas about confronting Nazism led to a clash with Pope Pius XII. This biography provides a view of the alleged silence of the pope on the Holocaust and Nazism."Joseph PHurley, though a little-known figure, was at the center of many intriguing diplomatic episodes.
