Vatican II opened fifty years ago on October 11, 1962. Since it ended in 1965, the council has been written of in countless books, articles, scholarly journals, magazines, and newspapers all over the world. Things said and done since the council, in the name of the council and in opposition to it, have affected the lives of everyone living since that time.

As with any significant historical event, it is only after considerable time has elapsed that a fuller story of exactly what happened in those years before,

during, and after "the event" can be engagingly told and wisely summarized. Professor de Mattei's genius lies in the application of a lucid, literate,

and philosophical mind to thorough scholarly research and mountains of documentation. From this framework he has presented us with a story; a story of an event, a previously unwritten story that has been begging to be told for many years. This book will unfold for you the answer to the question, What happened at the Council?"
