Too Small A World: The Life Of Francesca Cabrini is a biography written by Theodore Maynard, chronicling the life of an Italian-American nun and missionary, Francesca Cabrini. The book explores Cabrini's remarkable journey from a young girl growing up in Italy to becoming the first American citizen to be canonized as a saint by the Catholic Church. Maynard delves into Cabrini's early years, her education, and her decision to join the religious life. The book also highlights her tireless efforts to serve the poor and marginalized communities in America, particularly Italian immigrants. Maynard provides a detailed account of Cabrini's founding of the Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and her numerous charitable works, including the establishment of schools, hospitals, and orphanages. The book also delves into the challenges and obstacles that Cabrini faced, including discrimination and opposition from some members of the Catholic Church. Overall, Too Small A World: The Life Of Francesca Cabrini is a compelling and inspiring biography of a remarkable woman who dedicated her life to serving others and making the world a better place.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
