Mary MacKillop

The name of Mary MacKillop, founder of the Sisters of St Joseph of the Sacred Heart, and now Saint Mary MacKillop, is well known to thousands of Australians. Less is known about the actual life and character of Mary itself. 

In this book the author portrays a shy but determined young girl who experienced a strong sense of religious vocation and became Australia's first saint. 

This record of Mary MacKillop's life is a fitting tribute to a remarkable and courageous woman who has won a permanent place in the history of the Catholic Church in Australia.
