This review is from: Pope John Paul II: A Tribute (Hardcover)
I loved this book. I thought the photos were very beautiful and touching. However, it was Bulfinch Press who published it, not New York Graphic Society.

Misleading and inaccurate,
By Pyotr Rusakova "writer" (Washington, DC, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pope John Paul II: A Tribute (Hardcover)
This book is just a bit of fluff to get some money out of the odd popularity of Pope John Paul II. I quickly found at least one very erroneous statement in it. The book states that Pope John Paul I was a centrist and "was probably not going to be an innovator." Anyone who knows ANYTHING about Pope John Paul I knows that this is a totally absurd (and unimaginable) assessment of the man. A poll in Italy showed that many millions of Italians believe he was killed by someone in the Vatican precisely because Pope John Paul I was so revolutionary in his ideas about birth control, poverty, and the church's irresponsible dehumanization of gay people. Pope John Paul I was set to be the greatest innovator in the history of the Catholic church. So this book lost all credibility with me upon reading such an apparently intentionally misleading statement.
