Publisher's Summary

Joseph McCabe (1867 - 1955) was a free thinker and secular activist who was one of the most hostile critics of organized religion, Roman Catholicism in particular. As a former priest, theologian, and teaching academic, McCabe was uniquely qualified to examine the history of the Catholic Church in the early 20th Century.

This book explores the position of the Church and the Papacy at the end of the First World War. It is a synoptic presentation of the material discussed in much greater detail in his later works, Crises in the History of The Papacy (1919) and A History of the Popes (1939).
