The Peyote Road: Religious Freedom and the Native American Church - The Civilization of the American Indian Series
Thomas C. Maroukis
Despite challenges by the federal government to restrict the use of peyote, the Native American Church, which uses the hallucinogenic cactus as a religious sacrament, has become the largest indigenous denomination among American Indians today. The Peyote Road examines the history of the NAC, including its legal struggles to defend the controversial use of peyote.
