From Publisher's Weekly:

"The four years House devoted to writing about and researching the life of Francis were clearly well spent; his book is not only comprehensive in treatment but superbly written. He draws the reader into the saint's life with the ease of a master storyteller who has organized the details so skillfully as to allow them to do the work of spinning the tale. His method of setting Francis in the context of the times that shaped him is especially effective. By writing for those of any or no faith, the author has given aficionados of Francis and Clare as well as the merely curious much to savor."
