Drawing from his many diverse and inspiring experiences, Michael Ignatius takes the reader to 1917 Fatima, Portugal, in a deeply moving way, experiencing all the intricacies of the time's people, places, and events. In reflection, he interjects his own lived current-day experiences of pilgrimage in an effort to point out that we are all in the midst of a life-long pilgrimage on many levels-if we only take time and learn how to notice. The author's combining of extensive, yet subtle, scriptural and religious meanings into the mix amplifies his approach as it connects the Fatima story and message to one's lived faith experience in everyday life.

This timeless work reads like a thriller novel and relates all things Fatima to perceiving pilgrimage in nearly every intimation that one can realize, regardless of the place one may be on his or her own faith journey. Place of Pilgrimage seeks to make the trek through life more meaningful and purpose-driven, emphasizing the central truths of prayer, peace, and penance. It is quite simply a retreat experience in a book.
