Miraculous Histories - Tales and Legends

Legends of the Blessed Virgin

Stories taken from a not so ancient, 1852, work compiled by an unknown author. Wonderful stories to bring excitement to your faith. Even today many evidences which give credence to these stories still exist. Each story is preceded by a particular title given to Our Lady in english and Latin. The legends are enhanced by detailed decriptions of the times, the people and their spiritual lives. Details are included about the processions, prayers, and devotions which caused many of the great monuments to be erected without the slightest injury to the workers.
