  <default_description>&lt;B&gt;From &lt;I&gt;New York Times&lt;/I&gt; bestselling author Peggy Noonan comes &amp;#147;a beautifully written testimony about . . . the most historically recognized pope&amp;#148; (&lt;I&gt;Library Journal&lt;/I&gt;)&lt;/B&gt; &lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt; With such accla imed books as &lt;I&gt;When Character Was King&lt;/I&gt;, Peggy Noonan has become one of our most eloquent and respected commentators. Now she offers a stirring portrait of a spiritual and intellectual giant who personally confronted all of the worst tragedies of his age. Drawing on scholarship, interviews with prominent Catholics, and her own experience, Noonan traces the extraordinary life and struggles of Pope John Paul II with characteristic insight and probity&amp;#151;and explores how much we can learn from his leadership, diplomacy, humility, and holiness. Passionate and often deeply personal, &lt;I&gt;John Paul the Great&lt;/I&gt; is as exceptional as the man it celebrates.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I read this book during my trip to Italy and was extremely moved by it.  This is not a typical biography by any means as it does not simply follow the life of Pope John Paul.  Peggy Noonan is an outstanding writer and incorporates other people's quotes, opinions, anecdotes, etc as well as telling an...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/19882276">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[The premier columnist Peggy Noonan has written a sincere, informative book on a recent Pope, revealing the strength that a Pope can be in this era of declining Christian faith in America.
