Orders book recommend

[hoping4more]

can some one recommend a book that explains the differences in orders?

I am trying to understand some differences in the different franciscan orders, but would like general information.

I know there can be a lot of philosophical/political/ and even theological differences. Maybe something that can summarize those too.

There is an old joke about the three things things that God does not know.

How many angels can dance on the head of a pin.

What a Jesuit is thinking.

How many different Franciscan Orders there are.

Here’s a video that might help explain all of the different Franciscans. Brother Casey can be truly funny sometimes. There are a lot of Franciscans making videos these days.
