George Cardinal Pell - Pax Invictus - A Biography
George Cardinal Pell - Pax Invictus - A Biography
This definitive biography traces Cardinal George Pell’s life from his childhood in Australia to his role as the Vatican treasurer; through his trials, unjust imprisonment, and exoneration to his untimely passing away on January 10, 2023.
Like many bishops of his generation, Pell found dealing with corruption in the Church a herculean challenge. After being falsely accused of indifference to clerical sex abuse and of committing it himself, he suffered 404 days in solitary confinement for a crime he did not commit. In his role as Vatican treasurer, his efforts to reform the Church’s finances met with resistance from an entrenched “old guard”. Through it all, he retained his dignity and integrity as a faithful successor to the apostles.
