Monuments, Marvels, and Miracles: A Traveler's Guide to Catholic America

America’s got faith! You’ll find it in every state — in grand cathedrals and tiny chapels, in miracle shrines and underwater statues, and even in blessed dirt. Finding these sacred places hasn’t been easy, until now!

Monuments, Marvels, and Miracles: A Traveler's Guide to Catholic America takes you to more than 500 of the country’s most intriguing holy sites, each with a riveting story to tell. Stories about:

  • architecture (the interior of Guardian Angels Cathedral in Las Vegas resembles angel wings)

  • religious history (at Maryland’s Old Bohemia, Jesuit priests lived and worked incognito during anti-Catholic persecution)

  • artifacts (the Miraculous Medal Shrine in Philadelphia holds an original cast by Saint Catherine Labouré)

  • answered prayer (from the Grasshopper Chapel in Minnesota to the Coral Miracle Church in Hawaii)

  • healing places, beautiful places, hidden places, places where saints walked, and

  • much more.
