Britain and the Papacy in the Age of Revolution, 1846-1851
By: Matsumoto-Best, Saho
Published by: Boydell & Brewer

This book sheds light on one of the most curious episodes in early Victorian history when, around the time of the 1848 revolutions in Europe, a rapprochement almost developed between Britain and the papacy, and British politicians and writers referred to the new head of the Catholic Church, Pius IX, as 'the good pope'.
