Finally, after two thousand years of circling the wagons against its many critics, Martin Luther and Henry VIII being the most devastating, the Vatican is taken to task internally: by the Pope himself!

"It happens that this book germinated over dinner at my house in Virginia many years ago. Jack Kiley, a contributor to "Triumph," the monthly magazine founded by my husband, Brent Bozell, was our weekend guest in 1966. Jack had had one of his serial "cognitive breakthroughs" as he calls them, and sought Brent's advice on doing a novel about a pope. Here it is: the story of a pope who tries to rescue the planet from a thermonuclear holocaust. The world is ready for John Kiley's Peter II."
