"The flagship book on Native American spirituality remains Vine Delora's "God Is Red. He does an outstanding job of translating complex spiritual issues into very simple truths.
"Deloria's thinking on the subject of religion has lost none of its rage or relevance...since "God is Red" was first published. This book is broader than its subtitle suggests. It is a trenchant and often witty critique on non-Native religion through Native eyes." Awkekon Journal
"Deloria's handling of the contrast between Christianity and the naturalistic religion of the American Indians is rich in perceptiveness." Choice
