Description:

John R. H. Moorman

Moorman writes in his preface to this terrific, short biography of Francis of Assisi that Francis has something to say to all people.  He was a mystic, poet, and a man of great courage.  All these things were important, and all combine to make him a very remarkable man.  But perhaps the thing about him which appeals to us most today is the challenge which he threw down to the standards and values of the ordinary, secular life of man.

1987:  118 p.
