Opus Dei has been spreading a message of contact with God in everyday life throughout the globe for over a century. This book, the first of its type, covers the institution's history from its founding in 1928 through 2016. It is the result of intensive study into previously unknown papers in Opus Dei's archives, as well as countless interviews.
Volume Two spans five decades, beginning with the establishment of the Second Vatican Council in 1962. During that time, Opus Dei expanded from 5,000 to over 90,000 members and built centres all over the globe. St. John Paul II elevated it to the rank of personal prelature and canonized its founder, St. Josemara Escrivá.
