Chesterton does a marvelous job on St. Francis of Assisi and on St. Thomas Aquinas. I have read both and they are better than some tomes 5 times their length. He manages to capture the essence of these holy men.

Additional books recommended for Lenten readings on this thread. (I think you have your hands full with the Gospels and commentaries from Navarre.) This is for other posters.

For study and reflection during Lent - Mind, Heart, Soul [Catholic/Orthodox Caucus]
