The author has done an excellent work on the life of Pope Benedict. He has lived in Bavaria himself, and done extensive studies, and yet has come out with a touchingly simple and direct examination of the life of this great human being.
I have family in Bavaria and have visited on several occasions, and the author has caught the true spirit of the region and it's effect upon the birth and upbringiing of Pope Benedict. The intellectual brilliance as well as the simplicity of the man comes through. I have enjoyed and continue to enjoy reading this book and recommend it to anyone wanting to understand the culture and religious background of Joseph Ratzinger who became Pope Benedict xvi.
