Popular Piety and Political Identity in Mexico's Cristero Rebellion is written by Matthew Butler and published by Liverpool University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1805962175 (ISBN 10) and 9781805962175 (ISBN 13).

Dr Butler provides a new interpretation of the cristero war (1926-29) which divided Mexico's peasantry into rival camps loyal to the Catholic Church (cristero) or the Revolution (agrarista). Focusing on the state of Michoacán in western-central Mexico, the book shows how matters of faith were as crucial to peasants on both sides as political factors. Based on oral testimonies and evidence from many ecclesiastical and state archives, this study makes an important contribution to the religious history of the Mexican Revolution.
