The author of Saint Everywhere is answering the call from fans for
more reports from her quest to learn from some quietly
extraordinary women—and a man or two—who have changed the
world. Mary Lea Carroll travels to shrines and hometowns to learn
about such amazing people as Saint Marie of Quebec, who founded the
first girls’ school in the New World; philanthropist-turned-saint
Katherine Drexel of Philadelphia; Saint Brigid, a patron saint of
Ireland; Sudanese native Saint Josephine Bakhita, who ended up
living in Venice, Italy; and Pierre Touissant, the 19th-century
slave-turned-hairdresser in New York City who is in the process of
being canonized. In between her travels, Mary Lea connects with
everyday heroes she encounters in her daily life, all inspiring her
to continue her own journey to be a better citizen of the world.
