Stories about: The United States' only Church-approved Marian apparition (Champion, Wisconsin) - A family's safe passage to America after invoking the intercession of the Star of the Sea, and the chapel they built in thanksgiving (Cheektowaga, New York) - The Grotto, the fulfillment of a boyhood vow to do a "great work" for the Blessed Mother (Portland, Oregon) - An old Spanish shrine to Our Lady of La Leche, the powerhouse of answered prayers for babies (St. Augustine, Florida) - A priest who looked like Dean Martin and sang like Bing Crosby - and commissioned a statue as big as his love for Mary (Santa Clara, California) Written by the author of the blockbuster Monuments, Marvels, and Miracles (OSV, 2021), this book is another must-have for all Catholic travelers.
