About This Item
Scribner. Near Fine in Very Good+ dust jacket. 1995. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. 0684804166 . Red hard boards with white cloth spine and gilt titles to the spine. This copy is in Near Fine condition with light spine end bumping. The DJ is unclipped with wear to the covers and edges. Light staining to the inside of the covers. "As spiritual leader of nearly a billion Catholics, and head of the oldest universal organization, Pope John Paul II wielded enormous international power and influence. Yet he was a mystery - intellectually, theologically and politically. His intellectual achievements and erudition render his inexorably conservative posture on issues such as contraception and the all-male priesthood hard to comprehend when contrasted with his dedication to social justice in the Third World and among the poor and the affluent West." ; B&W Photographs; 1.9 x 9.3 x 6.3 Inches; 542 pages .
