'A fascinating book that is well written, competently documented, and sure to generate meaningful debate and discussion.' Sixteenth Century Journal 'Redden reconstructs a rich and engaging tapestry of voices without falling into simplistic dichotomies or anachronistic categorisations. By examining theological and political debates from the perspective of individual experience, Redden's study provides invaluable insights into vice-regal Peruvian society and the process of evangelism in the Americas in general.'
