He also considers the role of the religion in contemporary society and its ongoing relevance to Native American culture.Overall, The Peyote Religion: A Story In Indian-White Relations is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the complex relationship between Native American tribes and white settlers in the United States, and the role that religion has played in shaping this relationship.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
