good buy

The item was just what I needed in my library to research topics about St. Francis. It's a must for any Franciscan.

The first biography of St. Francis

This book contains the two lives of Saint Francis as written by Thomas of Celano. The two lives were written within twenty years following the death of Saint Francis and so represent a first-hand account of the his life written by one of his early followers. The translation of the original latin was done by a Franciscan, Placid Hermann. This is necessary reading if you are seriously studying his life.
