Not only Catholics, however, but Protestants and other Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, Jews, and nonreligious Americans commonly name him as one of their favorite spiritual figures. Appelbaum traces popular depictions and interpretations of St. Francis from the time when non-Catholic Americans "discovered" him in the nineteenth century to the present.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 271.302 Ap Checked In Add Copy to MyList
