Glory Of The Mohawks: The Life Of The Venerable Catherine Tekakwitha is a biography written by Edward Lecompte about the life of Catherine Tekakwitha, a Mohawk woman who lived in the 17th century. The book explores her life from her childhood in the Mohawk village of Ossernenon to her eventual conversion to Christianity and her life as a devout Catholic. The author delves into the historical context of Tekakwitha's life, including the interactions between the Mohawk and French cultures, as well as the impact of the Jesuit missionaries who played a significant role in her conversion. The book also examines Tekakwitha's enduring legacy, including her beatification by the Catholic Church in 1980. Overall, Glory Of The Mohawks provides a comprehensive account of the life of an important figure in Native American and Catholic history.Set In The 1700'S, This Is An Account Of The Short But Fulfilling Life Of Kateri Tekakwitha, A Simple Mohawk Maiden Who Became A Christian, Took A Vow Of Perpetual Virginity, And Spent Her Last Years In A Catholic Mission.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
