Description

The editors who brought you the New York Time best-seller Pope John Paul II bring you this book, which follows John Paul II and John XXIII from their humble beginnings all the way through their sainthood. It is fitting that both John Paul the II - one of the foremost historical and religious figures in recent history - and John XXIII will be canonized in April 2014 as the two men were linked by Vatican II (John as a sponsor, Wojtyla as a wunderkind).

This commemorative edition will also include photography from the canonization ceremonies and observations and a section on 2013-an eventful year in the Catholic Church-introducing Pope Francis, and covering Pope Benedict's move.
