Reviews

"Pulido's superb interpretation of Bautista's journey and the revelations it gives us of how we are shaped both by history and our unique spiritual, economic, and social passage illuminates religious experience from an exceptionally different vantage point. I learned so much from this must-read." -- Martha Bradley-Evans, Nova Religio
