The Rise of Benedict XVI The Inside Story of How the Pope Was Elected and Where He Will Take the Catholic Church, by John L. Allen, Jr. (read 14 Oct 2008) This 2005 book by the very able National Catholic Reporter Rome correspondent is an informative account of the last days of John Paul II and of the conclave which elected the new Pope in April 2005. One has the impression that Allen has done a careful and good job in his account of the conclave and of the four ballots which it took to elect the new Pope. He does not attempt to give a biography of Benedict, but does essay to predict what he will be like as Pope. I think that Benedict has turned out not to be the rigorous conservative that some expected, but has proven to be more pastoral than some, including Allen, predicted.

On 19 April 2005 at 5.50pm, white smoke poured from the Vatican chimney. Joseph Ratzinger had become one of the most important figures on earth. How and why was Pope Benedict XVI elected? And what will his impact be on the Catholic faith and the world? Vatican correspondent John L. Allen draws on his unparalleled knowledge to give the full inside story of the Church's new leadership. In this in-depth account he examines the transition from John Paul II to Benedict XVI, the legacy of the previous Pope and the role of the current leader. He takes us right into the heart of the selection process, interviewing the cardinals who chose Benedict XVI to reveal their thoughts on the new Pope and the reasons why he was picked. And he looks at why this conclave was one of the briefest of modern times. Confronting many difficult questions, Allen asks what the choice of a renowned 'hard line' traditionalist will mean for 1.1 billion Catholics around the globe.
