by Francis Johnston ~ Crippled at the age of fourteen when she jumped out of a window to escape from a rapist, Alexandrina da Costa (1904-1955) spent her life as an invalid. The Portuguese people flocked to see her because of the miracles surrounding her. She suffered the Passion of Christ on Fridays in expiation for sins and for the last 13 years of her life she ate and drank nothing except for daily communion. This book is the story of a great and heroic victim soul and positive proof that sanctity exists even in our day. ~Softcover, 120 pages.
