The Making of A Saint

These are the memoirs of the Beato Giuliano brother of the Order of St Francis of Assisi known in his worldly life as Filippo Brandolini; of which family I Giulo Brandolini am the last descendant. On the death of Fra Giuliano the manuscript was given to his nephew Leonello on whom the estates devolved; and has since been handed down from father to son as the relic of a member of the family whose piety and good works still shed lustre on the name of Brandolini.
