Long before the Immaculate Conception was proclaimed a dogma of the Catholic Church, Portugal has always held, promoted, honoured, and defended this belief - so far as to crown Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception as Queen of Portugal. Contained in this booklet are accounts of visitations and miracles of the Blessed Virgin Mary to her people throughout Portuguese history, both before and after her world famous apparitions at Fatima in 1917. Most of the narrations compiled here have been translated from their original Portuguese, into English, for the very first time. This booklet relates the following stories:
