More about the book
Set in the 1850s, the narrative follows Bishop Jean Marie Latour and his vicar, Father Joseph Vaillant, as they strive to revive the Roman Catholic faith in post-annexation New Mexico. The region, characterized by its desolation and diverse populations—including long-established Mexicans, indigenous groups with varied languages and customs, and recent settlers—serves as a backdrop for their mission. The story intertwines the priests' spiritual journey with the broader cultural and environmental transformations of the land and its people during this period.
