There he decided that if his journey was safely completed, he would write as an offering of thanks, a novel based on the life of Bernadette Soubirous. In Lourdes, over 150 years before, Bernadette, the daughter of an impoverished family, was visited by a vision of measureless kindness and indescribable beauty; she alone saw this lady of the Grotto."
