Description:
The Penitentes have long fascinated observers of New Mexico and southern Colorado. This volume draws on newly available documentary sources and contemporary materials to show the substantial contributions, through acts of charity, supervision of wakes and funerals, and religious observances, the Brotherhood made to community survival and spiritual life on an isolated frontier.
