First Atheneum Paperback Edition "'Mr. Berkhofer is aware of the missionary's ultimate purpose of conversion, but his interest in this book is with the missionary effort to 'civilize' the Indians, with the response of the Indians to that effort, and with the resulting acculturation. He brings a dual historical and anthropological approach to his subject and his analysis is as significant for anthropology as for the history of missions'" [excerpt on the back cover of a review by R.
