From Patmos to the Barrio reveals new insights into the biblical Apocalypse of John, and the enduring power of its legacy down to the present day, as well as translations of two important 17th-century documents concerning La Guadalupeña: Luis Laso de la Vego's Huei tlamahuiçoltica and Miguel Sánchez's Imagen de la Virgen Maria.
