A Social History of Cuba's Protestants: God and the Nation - Hardcover

by James A. Baer (Author)

A Social History of Cuba's Protestants: God and the Nation presents a religious and social history of Cuba, focusing on the Presbyterian and other Protestant churches, to show the continuity of ties between US and Cuban churches before and after the revolution in 1959. By examining the history of Cuba's Protestants as agents of social change within Cuba and as partners with US denominations, James A. Baer offers a unique assessment of Cuba's development as a nation and its relationship with the United States. Scholars of Latin American studies, religion, history, and social movements will find this book particularly useful.
