Summary
Christopher R. Altieri, a former senior editor for Crux news, wrote the book “Leo XIV: The New Pope and Catholic Reform” following his friend Augustinian Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost’s election as Pope Leo XIV. Altieri was pleased to be quoted in the book, which focuses on the papal office at the dawn of the Leonine era, a time when the Vatican underwent significant global leadership changes. Altieri’s project aimed to provide a comprehensive view of the papacy and its surroundings, addressing both institutional reform challenges and the growing role of the Church globally. The author emphasized his own expertise in the field as someone who previously lacked personal knowledge of Perú but could still contribute valuable insights due to his experience and contacts within the Church hierarchy.
