By the late spring, 1944 American and British bombers had been wreaking havoc on German targets for almost two years. But France, Belgium and other occupied countries of Western Europe were still under Nazi rule.

If successful, it would force Germany's already extended armies to defend their hold on Western Europe. At the same time, they were fighting furiously in the Soviet Union. At the end of the old Santa Fe Trail stands to mysterious Loretto Chapel. Inside the Gothic structure is the staircase, referred to as miraculous, inexplicable, marvelous. And as sometimes called ST Josephs turkeys, the stairway confounds architects, engineers and master craftsman. The risers of the 33 steps are all the same height made of extinct wood species. It was constructed with only square wooden pegs without glue or nails. The Library of Congress, the largest library in the world, was established in 1800 to meet the research needs of Congress. While that is the primary mission, the library has expanded their services to all Americans and to researchers from around the world the Shakers have a credo that which has in itself the highest use possesses the greatest beauty.
