"It is in 'The Mirror of Perfection,' a collection of very early writings by his first followers, that the truest insight into The Poor Man of Assisi is to be found. Leo Shirley-Price's new translation [1959] -- the first in fifty years-- of these simple, Gospel-like stories reveals the saint with steel-blade sharpness. The Mirror is the companion volume to 'The Little Flowers of St. Francis' and is the only other contemporary account of his life. - from book jacket
