By Willa Cather
- pgs: 297
The story of the life of a missionary priest in New Mexico who became the bishop of a province that was just taken over by the United States. The story is of the bishop and his close friend Father Joseph both French priests. This novel tells the story of their journey and specific things that occurred while they lived there. In addition, it tells the story of their death. A very interesting tale of the beginning of a province and the relationships of several Indian groups, Mexicans, Americans and missionaries. At times slow but good description about the landscape and setting in the story.
