Also included are The Canticle of the Creatures, and The Testament of St. Francis, an expression of the saint's last will.
One of the most gripping missionary sagas of our time. Five missionaries went into the land of the savage Aucas. Their offer of friendship was rejected, and the Aucas killed the missionaries.
