Description

Mohawk Saint: Catherine Tekakwitha and the Jesuits is the historical biography of the Mohawk/Algonquin woman who converted to Catholicism during the 17th century. She was beautified by Pope John Paul II in 1980 bringing her one step closer to sainthood. Catherine (Kateri) Tekakwitha (1656-1680) has become known as the Lily of the Mohawks to those believers who consider her an important figure in the Catholic religion. Greer is a professor of History at the University of Toronto.
