Title: a great intro to Our Lady of Guadalup
Review: This book is a concise and charming primer to Our Lady of Guadalupe for someone without understanding of the topic. It details life in the Aztec empire, has some important historical and cultural details of Mexico at the time of the Spanish conquest, and then, quite importantly, details the way in which various enemies of the Church and of the Mexican people have tried to destroy faith in her intercession but were always unsuccessful.This book increases and importance as time goes on with the Latinization of the US and rapid Hispanic population growth and influence here in the Southwest. The fact is that Mexico has a wonderful and beautiful history completely apart from the US - and this history centers on a person: the Blessed Virgin, Our Lady of Guadalupe. Read it and re-read it - the details are quite interesting and the presentation is quite charming and accessible.
