Download or read book The Fighting Nun written by Margherita Marchione and published by Associated University Presse. This book was released on 2000 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It humorously reveals why she has been called the "independent nun," "flying nun," "whirlwind nun," "literary nun," "feisty nun" and, more recently, "the defender of Pope Pius XII." This volume describes both her happy and difficult times up to the period of her bitter confrontation with John Cornwell, author of Hitler's Pope: The Secret History of Pius XII, the book that unjustly condemns Pope Pius XII's so-called "silence" during the Holocaust."--BOOK JACKET.
