The 40th anniversary edition of an Orbis classic--Francis of Assisi's spirituality and life explained in an inimitable voice that could only be his own, except that it was Carlo Carretto's. "I was born in Assisi, in Italy, eight hundred years ago. And eight centuries later I still remember a thing or two....

Middle class rich boy that I was, I never would have thought that it would be the poor who would be my salvation..."
