About this title

Review:

"The Catholic Church in so old in New Mexico, former Archbioshop Robert F. Sanchez once remarked, that it could have said Mass for the safe landing of the Puritans. This lengthy heritage is celebrated in this book of twenty-three essays, all derived from a 1997 Santa Fe symposium. Archbishop Michael J. Sheehan sets the tone with a thoughtful introduction, and Thomas J. Steele, S.J., the foremost expert on New Mexico Catholic history serves as major editor. . . . Although more a mosaic than a comprehensive narrative, Seeds of Struggle, Harvest of Faith provides the best overview of New Mexican Catholicism now available."
