“A groundbreaking study of religious conflict in Oaxaca. McIntyre’s insightful book illuminates the often hidden foundations of suffering and violence that undergird the establishment and rapid growth of Protestantism in Latin America.”—Todd Hartch, author of The Rebirth of Latin American Christianity
“McIntyre has expanded the chronological and spatial bounds of previous work on Protestantism in Mexico to Oaxaca in creative and useful ways. In particular, her examination of the intersection of indigenous and religious identity after 1940 should mark a path for scholars to take religion in the period more seriously, and to do so in the context of wider community networks.”—Jason H. Dormady, author of Primitive Revolution: Restorationist Religion and the Idea of the Mexican Revolution, 1940–1968
