Life and writings of one of the Church's greatest preachers and writers. Francis’s vocation and intrepid missionary work in France and Geneva were born and tested in the turmoil of European religious wars and the Reformation. Despite poor health, his fine mind, legal training and powerful pen, coupled with his great faith and zeal, made him a persuasive and effective debater against the Calvinism of his time. Francis (1567-1622) became Bishop of Geneva, where he died, exhausted, at only 55. This booklet introduces the reader to his writings, samples of which are included
