The story of Father Kino and Lt. Manje in the Pimeria Alta. In 1687 Jesuit missionary Kino rode into the Sonoran Desert to bring the Catholic Church’s message of salvation to the Pima and the Papago Indians, known today as the Tohono O'odham, or Desert People. Between modern day archaeologist Jorge Olvera and historical figures Kino and Manje, Clevenger tells a fascinating story of European entry into Southern Arizona.
