About this title

Synopsis

The dramatic story of an era during which science and religion were one and where one man dared to defy the only power on earth that was able to bring him to his knees.

From the Publisher

A suspenseful narrative and spirited rendition of the life of Galileo Galilei, the Renaissance giant who set out on a collision course with the Roman Catholic Church. James Reston's meticulous research, astute use of excerpts from letters, poems, and church documents enliven his hero on every page.
