Raves and Reviews

Readers interested in the cultural history of popular religion in colonial Spanish America will find the book richly informative. Those interested in methodology will be rewarded with a glimpse of how a masterful scholar engages his sources. Finally, the book is an exemplary work of translation. . . . In sum, Marvels and Miracles amounts to a valedictory contribution to the scholarship on religion in late colonial Spanish America by a historian who has done much over the last two decades to define the field.--A Contracorriente

A welcome contribution to the social history of religion in Latin America.--Journal of Colonialism and Colonial History
