In this fascinating literary and historical detective story, Dr. Pieper explores the sources for the life of St. Elizabeth of Hungary, and how our knowledge of her is affected by the discovery and reconstruction of a new Franciscan life of her from the end of the thirteenth century that contains lost portions of her canonization process.
