| Description: | Christianity meant many different things to flood-plain communities, and struggles to incorporate Christianity paralleled and intersected with other ongoing struggles. The sets of meanings that came to dominate were those created by young people drawn from a range of social backgrounds who in the behaviours and beliefs associated with Christian missionaries, found a refuge from insecurity and ways to transcend a particulary African context of generational relations and ideologies. |
| Key Points: | Based on over five years of research in Nambia, Finland and Germany, McKittrick's book is a tour de force demonstration of African social history at its best. |
