Best known for his efforts to end World War I. Benedict XV was the
first contemporary pope to assume the role of peacemaker, a role
that has persisted in the papacy since. Although Benedict's 1917
"Peace Note" was rejected by officials, he went on to help
establish Save the Children and to lead European efforts at
humanitarian aid. His brief pontificate resulted in a positive
reassessment of the Church's attitude towards colonialism and
colonized peoples. Using previously unpublished correspondence and
private papers from the Vatican archives, John Pollard has written
the first biography on Benedict XV in almost half a century.
