Reviews

'Christianity in Latin America is an excellent introduction for those wishing to study the impact of Christianity on a continent and its impact beyond.' Church History 'This book is a good introduction to the extremely complex issue of Christianity in Latin America. ... There is no doubt that [it] will prove to be a very valuable textbook in survey courses dealing with the Church in Latin America. It could also be profitably used in survey courses of Latin American history to provide a unique topical focus.' Catholic Historical Review
