This is an ambitious book, which aims to give a synthesis of recent historiography on Christianity in South Africa ... It is eloquent and persuasive in its advocacy of the importance of Christianity for a general understanding of South African history, and as such will be of considerable value both to the general historian and to the student of Christianity.
