" " The Making of the Popes reads with the speed and excitement of an Agatha Christie thriller. "
- John Deedy, managing editor, Commonweal "

" Now comes an epic which will not be equaled during modern times- a chronicle of the death of two popes and the election of their successors in the space of only two months. Only through this first-hand and inside analysis will the questions behind the headlines ever be answered. "

" Where will this first non-Italian-Polish- pope lead the world's largest church, based on his background dealing with communism ?
Who was the architect of the selection of the "Smiling Pope," Luciani ?
What happened in the Luciani and Wojtyla conclaves, ballot by ballot ?
How was the Wojtyla coalition formed ?
Who were the men behind it and why ? "

" Andrew M. Greeley, America's leading sociologist and priest/journalist, began working on The Making on the Popes over three years ago. {at time of publication}
A head of a task force covering both conclaves for Universal Press Syndicate, Greeley's dispatches appeared in over one hundred newspapers including the Chicago Sun-Times, Philadelphia Inquirer, Detroit Free Press, and Los Angeles Times. "

" For those of us looking from the outside in, The Making on the Popes 1978 is a book of suspense and intrigue reminiscent of All the President's Men as well as a work of trenchant, penetrating analysis in the tradition of Theodore White's The Making of the President. "
