Pope Benedict Remembered
in ‘Six Popes’

Six Popes: A Son of the Church Remembers is Monsignor Hilary C. Franco’s engaging memoir and a story only a son can tell, a son not only of the Catholic Church, but also of Italian immigrants.

From Belmont, his Bronx neighborhood, Franco rose to work with the highest and most influential figures of the Roman Catholic Church.

He was close to Benedict XVI and worked closely with him for many decades.

In Six Popes discover:

• Why Ratzinger never really wanted the papacy
• The health issues Cardinal Ratzinger has and why he asked Pope John Paul II for early retirement
• Benedict’s real views on the sexual abuse scandal
• How different Benedict and Francis really are
• Few know the Vatican and its secrets better than Monsignor Franco!

Franco as a young man attended Rome’s premier seminary, soon after becoming the special assistant to Archbishop Fulton Sheen.

As a priest he would travel the world, and he recounts a harrowing experience in the Deep South in the early 1960s, his work at the Vatican Councils that redefined the Church, and his time posted at the Church’s diplomatic missions in Washington, D.C., and the United Nations.

This most formidable churchman reveals his tales of intellectual, pastoral, and diplomatic service to the Catholic Church, enlivened by recollections of the fascinating people he came to know from U.S. presidents and foreign heads of state, to religious leaders like Padre Pio and Saint Mother Teresa.

The title of his current role, Advisor at the Permanent Observer Mission of the Holy See to the United Nations, gives little hint of the drama of the times he recollects.

Stories of this book’s six pontiffs that Franco served under include not only Benedict but John XXIII, Paul VI, John Paul I, John Paul II, Francis.

These papacies offer landmarks along Franco’s trek through the corridors of spiritual power in New York, Washington, D.C., and Rome.

Six Popes: A Son of the Church Remembers is written from a unique eyewitness vantage on many of the events and movements that shaped our world and the Catholic Church. There is really no other book like it.
