Great book
By Peter Stone
This was a great book and quite easy to read. The first half of the book deals with Christianity coming to Latin America and the Roman Church. While this part was interesting and has been covered by many people before so there was not that much new information although worth reading all the same. The second half dealt mostly with Protestantism and a very good chapter on Pentecostalism. This was very enlightening. The only downside about the book was that this second half was not longer with more information especially about the last 10 years or so (as this book was only published a couple of months ago). Apart from this it was a great read for anyone interested in Christian history or interested in global christianity from a non-European point of view.

Excellent history
By Doug Erlandson
Justo Gonzalez is best known for his two-volume "The Story of Christianity" and his three-volume "A History of Christian Thought." In "Christianity in Latin America" he and Ondina Gonzalez apply their skills as historians and story-tellers to create an easy-to-read and interesting yet meaty work on a topic that is often neglected. Many histories of Christianity give no more than a chapter to the history of Latin America. The Gonzalezes have admirably filled in the gap.
Beginning with a short introduction (that should not be overlooked, since it provides a brief overview of the main issues to be covered), "Christianity in Latin America" goes on to briefly describe the Latin America setting at the time when the first Europeans entered the land. There follows a discussion of the arrival of Christianity, how the faith was shaped by the institutional church, the religious orders, and so forth, the various reform movements in the church, the struggles within the church, and the church's role after Latin American became independent of Spain.
The part of the book is primarily about the Roman Catholic presence in Latin America. The rest of the book shifts to a discussion of the Protestant presence in Latin America, beginning with a description of the immigration from the Protestant areas of Europe as well as from North America, followed by a discussion of the Protestant missionaries to Latin America and the conflicts that resulted. The book then returns to a discussion of the effect of Vatican II on Latin American Catholicism and the rise of Pentecostalism and other movements in recent decades.
This is a must read for anyone interested in acquiring an overview of the history of the church in Latin America.
