SAINT PIUS V The Legendary Pope Who Excommunicated Queen Elizabeth I, Standardized the Mass and Defeated the Ottoman Empire by ROBERTO DE MATTEI

Description

Over decades, University of Rome professor Roberto de Mattei has produced a wealth of incisive analyses about the Catholic world’s collapse and charted an authoritative path back to health and sanity. He has now written a compelling and powerful biography of Pope Pius V, widely recognized as one of the boldest and most courageous popes of the past millennium, who decisively defeated the Ottoman Turks at the Battle of Lepanto and fought head-on the Protestant Reformation, which had assailed the Church. In these pages you will learn: How the “Revolution of Luther” was met with a papal shrug–that is, until Pius V became pope; Why St. Pius V’s no-compromise approach toward the Renaissance and Humanist corruption preserved the Church to this day: How he dealt with stray bishops and how the inquisitions played in the time of Pope Pius V.
