I loved this book about John Paul II (the Pope of Hope)!!! The authors gave us a little of everything, not an easy task for a man with so much history behind him. This is the first book where I have gone over pages more than once, twice. I wanted to absorb every word, every picture. The side stories were also a special treat. I respect and admire the pope even more. I now feel well prepared to read George Weigel's recently published autobiography on JPII, Witness to Hope. Thank you Monsignor Virgilio Levi and Christine Allison for giving us something so inspiring.

Finally, a book about His Holiness that is full of pictures, but also full of Papal info. If you're a Roman Catholic or a fan of the Supreme Pontiff, this is a must buy.

Excellent book with beautiful photographs of a most outstanding holy man. Very inspiring and very well done with many photos I had not seen before. It was a perfect gift for both my mother and mother-in-law for Mother's Day.

I really love this book. It's so slick and a great tribute to one of the most popular popes in recent history. It's well written and easy to read. It has nice photographs and actually adds some new details of information that I had not read elsewhere. I have a few other larger more complete biographies on John Paul the Great's life, but this one although condensed is a perfect refresher on his life without killing yourself reading a huge tome. Great read!
