The remarkable true story of a contemporary Saint who dedicated her life
to sharing with the world the peace she had found. From 1953 to 1981 an enigmatic, silver-haired woman calling herself only "Peace Pilgrim" walked more than 40,000 miles coast to coast of the USA, Canada and Mexico on a personal pilgrimage for peace. She vowed to "remain a wanderer until mankind has learned the way of peace, walking until given shelter and fasting until given food." In the course of her 28-year pilgrimage she touched the hearts, minds, and lives of thousands of individuals all across North America. Penniless and homeless, possessing only a toothbrush and a comb, Peace Pilgrim created a database of more than 6,000 pen pals from all corners of the globe.

“I am one of many who have admired and emulated the life and wisdom of Peace Pilgrim. Here is an American saint who transcended all national, religious, or sectarian bonds to communicate love, understanding and integrity. Her life was her teaching. She was like Gandhi or King who have a peaceful heart, but a warrior's spirit.”
