It is a journey into the past, an exploration of the present, and a view full of hope for the future.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark St Pierre\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0684802007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780684802008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Touchstone Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/30\/1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.24h x 6.22w x 0.58d","brand":"Mark St Pierre","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44042950410495,"sku":"9780684802008","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_27bc0564-751d-49ea-ae7c-8b412b60c67f.jpg?v=1684964446","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/walking-in-the-sacred-manner-mark-st-pierre-9780684802008","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
