Gilberto Cavazos-González’s Greater than a Mother's Love: The Spirituality of Francis and Clare of Assisi  investigates the lives and writings of Francis and Clare to consider their spirituality in the context of family relationships. He illustrates how Francis and Clare used their experience of various human relationships to understand their experiences with God and their brothers and sisters. The book provides an exhaustive bibliography and several appendices that enhance study of the two founders of the Franciscan Famiglia.
