The pivotal, untold story of the bloody revolution that stripped Pius IX of political power, spelled the end of the papacy and earthly rule, and signalled the birth of modern Europe.
As the longest-reigning pope, Pope Pius IX oversaw one of the greatest periods of tumult and transition in Church history.
Vividly brings to life the key figures, from the vocal Roman popolani, to the power-hungry cardinals and courtiers who angled incessantly for power.
