Life of the Pope who inaugurated the Second Vatican Council. Angelo Roncalli intelligent modest joyful and from the humblest of origins became Pope aged 78. Yet his short papacy (1958-1963) inaugurated the most significant event in Church life for centuries: the Vatican Council II. The moving spiritual journey told here - his ambitions and failures
his family and the years overseas as a papal representative - reveal the gentle heart of a true pastor.
