Description
This is probably the most comprehensive and wide-ranging book ever published on the visions and miracles reported from central Portugal 95 years ago. It delves deeply into one of Christendom’s most fascinating and controversial mysteries.
Of the many books published about Fátima, nearly all have been written from a purely religious standpoint. This one is the work of an impartial journalist who has investigated the subject from religious, political, historical, philosophical and psychological perspectives.
The author maintains a neutral position throughout and believes his book will be of equal interest to believers and non-believers. He relates astounding facts, claims, counterclaims and opinions from a broad spectrum of relevant people, and invites readers to make up their own minds where the truth lies.
Who were the visionaries, what exactly did they report and in what circumstances? Did the Church authorities manipulate the situation in the face of political repression? What role did Jesuits and Freemasons play in the saga? Why is the so-called ‘third secret’ still hugely contentious? These and many other questions are examined in the book.
A Portuguese edition (O Fenómeno de Fátima – Graça Divina, Ilusão ou Fraude?) was published by Guerra e Paz of Lisbon just before the visit to Fátima of the Pope Benedict XVI in 2010.
