A review by nanikeeva
The Pope at War: The Secret History of Pius XII, Mussolini, and Hitler by David I. Kertzer

4.0

extremely thorough but manages to be engaging, not dry (at least in the first half or so - afterwards, becomes the infuriating inaction and complicity becomes a bit repetitive from a narrative perspective, but this *is* a nonfiction book after all, so that's hardly a fair complaint
