Book Synopsis Popular Piety and Political Identity in Mexico's Cristero Rebellion by : Matthew John Blakemore Butler
Book excerpt: The author provides a new interpretation of the Cristero War (1926-29) which divided Mexico's peasantry into rival camps loyal to the Catholic Church (cristero) or the Revolution (agrarista). This book puts religion at the heart of our understanding of the revolt.
