A notable study on the history, contributions, and role of the Catholic Church in Nagaland in the formation of the State may be found in Tribes of Nagaland and the Catholic Church. It traces the beginnings, development, and influence that the Catholic Church had on the populace and the state as a whole. The book recalls the tremendous sacrifices made by early Catholic missionaries and lay leaders, but it also emphasises the challenges they experienced as a result of their Catholicism, including social exclusion, hostility, threats, and deportation.
