Product Details
St. Francis, next to Mary, is considered by many to be the greatest saint in the Christian church. In St. Francis of Assisi, author G. K Chesterton, unlike many other biographers, gives us the picture of Francis made up of the paradoxes that made him human and a saint as he lived in his culture of the colorful Middle Ages. For instance, Francis loved women yet took a vow of chastity, loved natural pleasures yet chose to live a life of poverty.
Chesterton's look at St. Francis is considered to be one of the truest presented. He gives us a Francis who stood on his head to get a different viewpoint of the world, tried to end the Crusades by talking to the Saracens and interceded with an emperor on behalf of birds. Enlightening and entertaining, this book captures St. Francis in all his eccentricities and contradictions and yet reveals the very essence of his intellectual and spiritual grounding in the Church.
