Bakhita: From Slave to Saint by Roberto Italo Zanini

At age 9, Bakhita was kidnapped near Darfur by slave traders and endured brutal and humiliating treatment until purchased by an Italian and taken to Venice where she would later become a nun. After her death in 1947, reports of miracles attributed to her began to come in and the cause for her elevation was started.

This book contains information from Bakhita's autobiography, written under obedience to her superior, the canonization files and other sources to give you a picture of the life, virtues and miracles of this daughter of Africa.
