The Life of St Francis of Assisi

by Saint Bonaventure

This is an original biography of St Francis written by St Bonaventure not long after the Saint's death.  Francis' humility, purity and true joy inspired many men and women to conversion in and a deeper faith.  Others joined with him in serving God and the poor; thus began the Franciscan Order.  Never ordained to the priesthood, St Francis nonetheless was a preacher of great renown and a miracle worker of the first order.
