Reviews

Wild-Wood's monograph is an outstanding example of biography's potential to offer a richly textured local history. The Mission of Apolo Kivebulaya is a terrific book and reflects an impressive contribution to historical scholarship. * RELIGIOUS STUDIES REVIEW *


[...] monumental and profoundly well-researched book [...] In nine well-written chapters, Wild-Wood accomplished her aim to demonstrate a re-examination of the appropriation of Christianity in different spatial settings and its repercussions on social change. -- Religious Studies Review
