Introducing previously unpublished documents, 'The Vatican and the Red Flag' examines the Catholic Church's confrontation with communism from the French Revolution to the post-WWII period. It also details the life of Karol Wojtyla, who as Pope John Paul II is the first Eastern European pontiff. Authors Jonathan Luxmoore and Jolante Babiuch offer remarkable new evidence of how popes unwittingly contributed to the expansion of communism.
