'The world is too small to limit ourselves to one point. I want to embrace it entirely and to reach all its points, exclaimed Frances Cabrini before crossing the ocean many times to respond to requests for new foundations in the United States, Nicaragua, Panama, Argentina, France, Spain, England and Brazil. During her 1890 trip to the United States, Mother Cabrini began the custom of writing letters to her sisters in the form of a travel diary. These letters appear here in chronological order in a new English translation. They show an intimate side of the saint that a biography is unable to reveal.'--from back cover.

Keywords: religion, religious, Christian, Christianity, Catholic, Catholicism, sainthood, memoir, missionaries, correspondence, women authors.
