In 1851, Father Jean Marie Latour comes to serve as the Apostolic Vicar to New Mexico. What he finds is a vast territory of red hills and tortuous arroyos, American by law but Mexican and Indian in custom and belief.

In the almost forty years that follow, Latour spreads his faith in the only way he knows—gently—all the while contending with an unforgiving landscape, derelict and sometimes openly rebellious priests, and his own loneliness.

Out of these events, Willa Cather gives us an indelible vision of life unfolding in a place where time itself seems suspended in Death Comes for the Archbishop.
