739. Letters from Vatican City Vatican Council II (First Session) Background and Debates, by Xavier Rynne (read 22 June 1963) I much appreciated this book, and reveled in the triumph of the more progressive prelates.
692. John XXIII The Story of the Pope, by Francis X. Murphy, C.S.S.R. (read 18 Mar 1962) Pope John XXIII was a hero to me and I found this book well worth reading.
822 The Second Session: The Debates and Decrees of Vatican Council II September 29 to December 9, 1963, by Xavier Rynne (read 25 Sep 1965) This book was read with much appreciation, and was a valuable guide to the Council's second session.
