Description

Three hundred and thirty-two years after her death, Kateri Tekakwitha has become recognized as a saint of the Catholic Church.
Read about her extraordinary life through the eyes of someone who actually knew her: Fr.
Pierre Cholonec, one of the two main biographers of St.
Kateri.
Father Cholonec’s account of Kateri’s life, as presented in this book, helped solidify her name and reputation within the Catholic world and began the process that would culminate with her canonization in October of 2012.
This new edition of Fr.
Cholonec’s abridged biography, written in 1715, brings the courageous and endearing story of the Lily of the Mohawks out of hard-to-find academic texts to modern readers.
Also included in this volume as an addendum to the biography of St.
Kateri is Fr.
Cholonec’s heartwrenching and fascinating account of the Iroquois martyrs, the friends and neighbors of St.
Kateri who preferred to die by torture than to give up their hard-won faith.
