Sommario/riassunto

Native and Christian is an anthology of essays by indigenous writers in the United States and Canada on the problem of native Christian identity.  This anthology documents the emergence of a significant new collective voice on the North American religious landscape. It brings together in one volume articles originally published in a variety of sources (many of them obscure or out-of-print) including religious magazines, scholarly journals, and native periodicals, along with one previously unpublished manuscript.
