"A masterful new history of Europe's last unchristianised peoples in the period between 1387 and 1900, from the Sámi of northern Fennoscandia to the Balts and the Finno-Ugric peoples of European Russia, exploring the reasons for their late adoption of Christianity and their creative religious responses to encounters with missionaries"--
