Quetzalcoatl and Guadalupe ; the formation of Mexican national consciousness, 1531-1813 / Jacques Lafaye - Chicago, IL : University of Chicago Press , c1976 - 336 p. ; 23 cm.

In this study of complex beliefs in which Aztec religion and Spanish Catholicism blend, Lafaye demonstrates the importance of religious beliefs in the formation of the Mexican nation.
