Synopsis

Peace Pilgrim (born Mildred Lisette Norman in July 1908) walked and spoke continuously across America from 1953 until her death in 1981. “Walking until given shelter and fasting until given food,” she carried a simple yet powerfully enduring message of peace. A few of her friends later gathered her writings and talks into this first-person account of her experiences and beliefs. Peace Pilgrim has become a spiritual classic, with over half a million copies in print in nine languages. Includes news clippings, questions and answers, photographs, and an index.
