The United "Saints" of America: On Pilgrimage with Our Mother Mary from Sea to Shining Sea

Peggy Stanton and Vanessa discuss this new book with a particular emphasis on the state of Alaska.

The United Saints of America? The “big S” saints — those raised to the altar by the Catholic Church — have traversed our land, sea to shining sea, from St. Isaac Jogues in the East to St. Junípero Serra in the West. To mark our nation’s 250th birthday, join veteran journalist and passionate storyteller Peggy Stanton on a tour of all 50 states and the District of Columbia, under the guidance of our patroness, the Blessed Mother, in search of the famous and not-so-famous shrines, those least recognized but with wonderful, intriguing back stories.
