He chose the name Francis. The world didn't know it yet-but everything was about to change. On March 13, 2013, a little-known cardinal from Argentina stepped onto the balcony of St. Peter's Basilica-and into history. Francis: The Pope from the Ends of the Earth is the compelling true story of Jorge Mario Bergoglio's unlikely journey from the backstreets of Buenos Aires to the highest office of the Catholic Church. But this is more than a biography. It's a deep exploration of power, humility, and reform in a global institution at a crossroads. From his battles with the Argentinian dictatorship to his struggles within the Vatican's inner circle, Pope Francis emerges as a leader forged by crisis-and driven by conscience. Through vivid storytelling, rare insights, and global context, Andrea Lavizzari reveals the man behind the cassock: a radical traditionalist, a disruptor in white, and a voice for the voiceless in a fractured world. What does it mean to lead with mercy in an age of division? Can one man truly reform a 2,000-year-old institution from within? This book doesn't just ask those questions-it follows the man who dares to live them.
