Omschrijving
The untold story of the bloody revolution that stripped the pope of political power and signalled the birth of modern Europe.
Grippingly written, pageturning and scholarly, this book is an immense achievement which few can hope to equal. This is a magni?cent book; analysis and narrative at their ?nest.

He is the author of twelve books, including The Pope and Mussolini, also published by OUP and winner of the 2015 Pulitzer Prize for biography; The Popes Against the Jews, a finalist for the Mark Lynton History Prize; and The Kidnapping of Edgardo Mortara, a finalist for the National Book Award in 1997. He has twice been awarded the Marraro Prize from the Society for Italian Historical Studies for the best book on Italian history, and in 2005 was elected to membership in the American Association of Arts and Sciences. He and his wife, Susan, live in Providence, Rhode Island, and Harpswell, Maine.
