Never ordained a priest, St. Francis nonetheless was a preacher and a miracle-worker of the first order—curing, prophesying, casting out devils, turning water into wine, and raising people from the dead.
The Life of St. Francis of Assisi by St. Bonaventure conveys a picture of the Saint that renders an indelible impression of a man totally transformed by God.

Fascinating Read
But I wish the language-in particular sentence structure and syntax-had been modernized. It would make it easier to read.

Francis of Assisi
