By Ilia Delio, O.S.F. - professor of ecclesiastical history and director of spirituality studies at the Washington Theological Union in Washington, D.C.
A wonderful book - an excellent Lenten read!

Ilia Delio shows us just how Clare's simple but powerful beliefs transformed the way we all think about Christ - even today." Published by St. Anthony Messenger, paperback, , 129 pages.
