Carlo Falconi

Carlo Falconi (20 October 1915 – 24 September 1998) was an Italian journalist and writer about Roman Catholicism.

For the bishop, see Carlo Falconi (bishop).

Ordained as a Catholic priest in 1938, Falconi left the priesthood in 1949 and became a journalist.[1]

The Kirkus Review said of The Popes in the Twentieth Century, "On the whole, then, the book is a readable and not uninteresting, but primarily subjective, history of the twentieth-century papacy, that will hold little appeal for a critical audience."[2]

gollark: I would personally drop the alpha channel, run it through zstandard or something for bigger files, reduce it to maybe 2 bits per color channel, and add some reference areas so a scanner knows the maximum color.
gollark: Oh, and your screen cannot actually display the alpha channel.
gollark: You'll probably need to drop the information density substantially if you want that to actually be scannable.
