Spaceshots and Snapshots of Projects Mercury and GeminiA Rare Photographic History

John Bisney & J. L. pickering

The race to space between the United States and the Soviet Union captured the pop-ular imagination. On April 12, 1961, the USSR launched cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin on

a one-orbit flight, making him the first human in space. Three weeks later, American astronaut Alan B. Shepard Jr. flew 116 miles above Earth before splashing down in the Bahamas. Over the next twenty years astronauts emerged as national heroes.

This book tells the story of the people and events of Projects Mercury and Gemini with hundreds of unpublished and rare photographs—both color and black-and-white. Unlike other publications, which illustrate the space race with well-known and easily accessible images, this history draws from the authors’ private library of over one hundred thou-sand (and growing) high-quality photos of the early U.S. manned-space program. Col-lected over a lifetime from public and private sources—including NASA archives, fellow

Mmagician A performer who creates illusions of seemingly impossible feats. Often referred to as a stage magician or illusionist to distin-guish them from one practicing paranormal or ritual magic. One who specializes in escapes from restraints is called an escape artist.

mailing list A list of people contacted for a specific event. It can be a publicity list of press to contact for event promotion, a list of invitees, a list of donors from which to gain funds, or a list of VIPs who must be contacted. Traditionally, materials were mailed by post on a planned scheduled to people on the list or lists, but much of this is now done by e-mail. These lists are extremely valuable for repeated events, each time reviewing the responses to eliminate the nonresponsive while updating the lists with new names.

main curtain Also referred to as the front curtain, grand drape, house curtain, or act curtain. It is the curtain hung immediately up-stage (behind) the proscenium arch, which frames the stage. Only limited performance takes place in front of the main without it being opened.

There are different types of main curtains:

P Guillotine, which is a single curtain that lifts vertically up into the fly loft to reveal the stage. (Named after the execution device!)

P The wipe style, a single curtain that moves sideways to reveal the stage.

P A tab or tableau, which gathers the two halves, pulling each up and to the side.

P An Austrian or contour, with a characteristic set of folds, that is suspended from an overhead batten behind the proscenium. When pulled up it collects the folds one after the other, creating a visu-ally interesting reveal of the stage.

P Smaller theaters typically have a traveler style, with two halves that pull apart toward the sides.

main event In wrestling it is the most prestigious matching of the event, the reason most of the audience attended. Also sometimes used in championship boxing.

maítre d’ The host. The person responsible for guest interaction and satisfaction. Often a headwaiter or house steward. Also referred to as a maítre d’hôtel. This person is an important asset when you are planning a function at a hotel or restaurant. Close planning with the maítre d’ is essential for everything from the food and beverage menu, to the reception of your guests at the door.

make fast To make secure or to fasten.

makeup The art of improving or changing the appearance of an actor or others for the purpose of dramatic effect. A makeup artist utilizes a wide range of chemicals in different shades along with other materi-als to deepen, highlight, or cover facial characteristics. Often these changes are subtle, intended to just add a glow and eliminate blem-ishes, while special effect makeup can completely change the facial appearance through the use of artificial hair, prosthetic appliances, skin-safe silicone rubber, and paints.

A Bartender also Needs: Cherries, olives, cocktail onions, lemon and lime slices, Angostura bitters, Worcestershire sauce, pitcher of water, sugar, and lots of hard frozen ice.

A jigger should always be used to measure liquor for each drink. Too much liquor spoils a good drink and sometimes a good party!

Use maraschino cherries with stems and pierce olives and other fruit with a toothpick. Guests appreciate the convenience.

A good bartender knows that if the recipe for the drink says shake . . . don’t stir. If it says stir . . . don’t shake.

Standard Bar Glassware

Choose styles that suit the drinks being served. Plan a total of four glasses per guest in proportion to the type of drinks being served. Have plastic glasses as a backup.

Glassware must sparkle! Wash in warm water, dry with a towel, polish with a fresh dry towel.

Laguna Pueblo A Photographic History

Lee marmon & tom corBett

“Filling a void in the visual history of New Mexico, this book shows the extraordi-nary work of Lee Marmon, a master of multiple genres of photography.”

—MiguEl A. gANDERt, phOtOgRAphER Of hermAniToS comAnchiToS: inDo-hiSpAno riTuAlS of cApTiviTy AnD reDempTion

The distinguished American Indian photographer Lee Marmon has documented over sixty years of Laguna history: its people, customs, and cultural changes. Here more than one hundred of Marmon’s photos showcase his talents while highlighting the cohesive, adaptive, and independent character of the Laguna people.

Along with Marmon’s own oral history of the tribe and his family photos dating back to 1872, Tom Corbett presents archival images and historical research, making this the most complete published history of any southwestern pueblo. Marmon and Corbett also interviewed noted tribal elders and oral historians regarding customs, religious practices, and events of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

The resulting narrative provides a fascinating story of survival through severe natural and man-made adversities, including droughts, plagues, marauding tribes, and cultural invasion. Through it all, Laguna has preserved its culture and retained sovereign powers over the pueblo and its territory.

After years of searching for the ghost of Edward Abbey across the American West, sean prentiss has settled with his wife, Sarah, on a small lake in northern Vermont. He now teaches creative writing at Norwich University and is the coeditor of The Far Edges of the Fourth Genre: An Anthology of Explorations in Creative Nonfiction.

Finding AbbeyThe Search for Edward Abbey and His Hidden Desert Grave

sean prentiss

When the great environmental writer Edward Abbey died in 1989, four of his friends buried him secretly in a hidden desert spot that no one would ever find. The final resting place of the Thoreau of the American West remains unknown and has become part of American folklore. In this book a young writer who went looking for Abbey’s grave com-bines an account of his quest with a creative biography of Abbey.

Sean Prentiss takes readers across the country as he gathers clues from his research, travel, and interviews with some of Abbey’s closest friends—including Jack Loeffler, Ken “Seldom Seen” Sleight, David Petersen, and Doug Peacock. Along the way, Prentiss exam-ines his own sense of rootlessness as he attempts to unravel Abbey’s complicated legacy, raising larger questions about the meaning of place and home.

“Prentiss reveals the power of Ed Abbey’s lasting call to action . . . as an ethicist who lives by Ed’s own motto, ‘Follow the truth no matter where it leads.’”—JACk lOEfflER, AuthOR Of ADvenTureS wiTh eD: A porTrAiT of Abbey

Abbey in AmericaA Philosopher’s Legacy in a New Century

edited By John a. murray

More than twenty-five years after his death, iconic writer and nature activist Edward Abbey (1929–1989) remains an influential presence in the American environmental movement. Abbey’s best known works continue to be widely read and inspire discourse on the key issues facing contemporary American society, particularly with respect to urbanization and technology. Abbey in America, published forty years after Abbey’s popu-lar novel The Monkey Wrench Gang, features an all-star list of contributors, including jour-nalists, authors, scholars, and two of Abbey’s best friends as they explore Abbey’s ideas and legacy through their unique literary, personal, and scholarly perspectives.

A Vision of VoicesJohn Crosby and the Santa Fe Opera

craig a. smith

A destination for thousands of opera lovers every year and the anchor of Santa Fe’s thriv-ing arts scene, the Santa Fe Opera owes its existence to the vision and hard work of one man: John O’Hea Crosby (1926–2002). This book, the first in-depth exploration of Crosby’s career, shows how the Opera reflected his passions for music and the arts.

A Vision of Voices depicts the many sides of Crosby—a dreamer and tough-minded businessman, an artistic explorer and conservative programmer, and a competent con-ductor and sharp critic. His devotion to quality and his obsessive oversight bore an endur-ing harvest that forever changed Santa Fe and the operatic world.

“An authoritative and exhaustive examination of John Crosby—the musician, the visionary, the impresario, the man—and his magnum opus, the Santa Fe Opera.”

Hoe, Heaven, and HellMy Boyhood in Rural New Mexico

nasario garcía; foreword By marc simmons

“Growing up on the Rio Puerco in the 1940s, Nasario García was part of one of the last generations to experience the strong family and community bonds that made life in rural New Mexican villages possible. His touching recollections of his life

through folklore and family history are told with humor and drama.”—fRANCES lEviNE, COEDitOR Of Telling new mexico: A new hiSTory

When Nasario García was a boy in Ojo del Padre, a village in the Rio Puerco Valley north-west of Albuquerque, he grew up the way rural New Mexicans had for generations. His parents built their own adobe house, raised their own food, hauled their water from the river, and brought up their children to respect the old ways. In this account of his boyhood García writes unforgettably about his family’s village life, telling story after story, all of them true, and fascinating everyone interested in New Mexico history and culture.

Folklorist and native New Mexican nasario garcía has published numerous books about Hispanic folklore and the oral history of northern New Mexico, including Grandma’s Santo on Its Head / El santo patas arriba de mi abuelita: Stories of Days Gone By in Hispanic Villages of New Mexico / Cuentos de días gloriosos en pueblitos hispanos de Nuevo México and Grandpa Lolo’s Navajo Saddle Blanket: La tilma de Abuelito Lolo (UNM Press). He currently lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Roadside New MexicoA Guide to Historic Markers, Revised and Expanded Edition

david pike; foreword By BeverLy duran

Through New Mexico’s Official Scenic Historic Markers we learn about the people, the geological features, and the historical events that have made the Land of Enchantment a place unlike any other. An index to our history, these markers tell an incredible story about our cultures and origins. This revised and expanded edition of Roadside New Mexico provides additional information about these sites and includes approximately one hun-dred new markers, sixty-five of which document the contribution of women to the history of New Mexico.

Now structured alphabetically for easier identification, each essay also offers suggestions of similar Historic Markers to help readers explore each topic further. In addition, Pike includes entries on “Ghost Markers”—those sites missing from the road that still impart significant historical lessons.

Wildflowers of the Northern and Central Mountains of New MexicoSangre de Cristo, Jemez, Sandia, and Manzano

Larry J. LittLefieLd & pearL m. Burns

This unique reference work describes over 350 wildflowers and flowering shrubs that grow in New Mexico’s Sangre de Cristo, Jemez, Sandia, and Manzano Mountains, as well as neighboring ranges, including the Manzanita, San Pedro, Ortiz, and other lower- elevation mountains in central portions of the state. With more than a thousand color photographs accompanied by visual descriptions, the easy-to-use guide organizes plants first by flower color, then alphabetically by family common name, then by scientific name. The authors also include information on traditional uses of the plants by indige-nous peoples and an extensive glossary and bibliography. A brief geological history and description of the ranges examines the different life zones and ecosystems and how these relate to elevation and microclimates. Wildflower enthusiasts and hikers will welcome this useful book.

Larry J. LittLefieLd is a professor emeritus of plant pathology at Oklahoma State University. He has been a volunteer with the Sandia Mountain Natural History Center and the trails maintenance crew for the U.S. For-est Service since retiring in Albuquerque in 2005.

pearL m. Burns, coauthor of the “Wildflowers” chapter of Field Guide to the Sandia Mountains (UNM Press), is a member of the Friends of the Sandia Mountains and a leader of countless wildflower hikes for the U.S. Forest Service, Albuquerque Open Space program, and other organizations.

The CanyonA Novel

stanLey crawford

Scotty’s family owns a lodge near their silver mine in the Colorado Rockies. Summers at the lodge are idyllic for Scotty and his cousin Mickey. The grown-ups are dealing with the complications of business and adult dysfunction, but the boys are more interested in the complications of puberty, especially when Rosalind, the teenage daughter of family friends, is on hand. To read this quiet, rich evocation of adolescent watchfulness is to ex-perience what it is like to be fourteen years old, waiting for something to happen, aware of everything but oblivious to as much of it as possible. Readers will be reminded of such modern masters as William Maxwell and John Updike.

“A wonderful portrait of the natural world and of the beginning of childhood’s end, written with simplicity, rich humor, poetic depth, and restraint. . . . There is also a quiet but lovely humor throughout the book. You just don’t get books as

well crafted and original as this very often.”—JOhN NiChOlS, AuthOR Of The milAgro beAnfielD wAr

“These stories are so aching and wise, full of pasts and futures and people we should have known better, full of love.”

—JuNOt DíAz, AuthOR Of ThiS iS how you loSe her

A man waits to cross la línea, the U.S.-Mexico border, as a guard scrutinizes him from behind dark sunglasses. Two grown brothers living three thousand miles apart struggle to reconnect through the static of a bad phone connection. A young mother trying to ad-just to small-town life in a new country tells her children about the border city where she grew up—the dances and parties and cruises along the boulevard. The stories in Santiago Vaquera-Vásquez’s intimate conversational narrative take readers around the world, from the orchards of California to the cornfields of Iowa, from the neighborhoods of Madrid and Mexico City to the Asian shore of Istanbul. As the characters navigate borders and border crossings—both physical and psychological—they attempt to make sense of their increasingly complex memories and relationships.

“Jemez Spring is meant to appeal to readers of conventional mystery novels, but there is nothing conventional about it. . . . It taps into primal and universal fears

and longings but plays them out in a uniquely New Mexican setting.”—loS AngeleS TimeS

When the governor of New Mexico is found drowned in the Bath House at Jemez Springs, Albuquerque private eye Sonny Baca is called in to investigate. As he soon learns, murder is only the beginning of the evil that Sonny must sort out. Someone has planted a bomb in the Valles Caldera, not far from the Los Alamos National Laboratory, and it is set to det-onate in just a few hours. Is this the work of terrorists or is Sonny’s old nemesis, Raven, mixed up in the plot?

In a race against the clock Sonny encounters ghosts and sorcerers, beautiful women and environmental activists, and developers and politicians who are quarreling over the state’s most precious resource, its water.

The Hero TwinsA Navajo-English Story of the Monster Slayers

Jim kristofic; iLLustrations By noLan karras James

The Hero Twins tells the story of two brothers born to Changing Woman and trained by the Holy People to save their people from the naayéé’, a race of monsters. But the naayéé’ can’t be beaten alone. Family and friends and wise mentors must lead any warrior down the good path toward victory. Colorful illustrations show the action as the twins seek out their father to receive the weapons they need to face the greatest monster of them all: Yé’iitsoh.

Told in Navajo, the Diné language, and English, this story exists in many versions, and all demonstrate the importance of thinking, patience, persistence, bravery, and reverence. These teachings still help the Diné—and everyone—find the harmony of a balanced and braver life.

The brothers cut off the head of Yé’iitsoh and his blood flowed across the valley in front of Blue Bead Mountain. These days, the red rocks are blackened by the blood in that area today.

The twins had cut away Yé’iitsoh ’s life. They gave each other war names. The older brother was called Naayéé’ neizghání—Monster Slayer. The younger brother was called Na’ídígishí—He Who Cuts Life Out of the Enemy.

After that killing, the twins prayed to their father, the Sun. They put the monster’s arrows into the basket. They took them back to their mother. When Changing Woman saw her children return, they danced and sang in a beautiful way.Haashch’ééłti’ í, the Talking God, and Tó neinilí, the Water Sprinkler,

BarBara sparks; introduction By david L. witt

On the auspicious hundredth anniversary of the founding of the Taos Society of Artists, photographer Barbara Sparks has compiled a compelling insider’s collection of works taken over her years as a visitor and resident of one of New Mexico’s most magical places. The book captures the truly breathtaking diversity of the land from its dramatic rift to the beloved mountains said to hold the spirits of the ancients, to the churches and the Pueblo, and to the people—the Native Americans, Hispanics, and Anglos—who live in harmony, working the land, creating art, and keeping the stories of their vast heritage alive.

The work of BarBara sparks has been shown in both solo and group exhibitions and added to the permanent collections of the Harwood Museum, Millicent Rogers Museum, Palmer Museum of Art at Penn-sylvania State University, Sangre de Cristo Art Center, and Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center. She has received prestigious art awards and is the recipient of two grants from the Colorado Endowment for the Humanities. She splits her time between homes in Colorado Springs and Taos, New Mexico.

Texas AbstractModern / Contemporary

michaeL pagLia & Jim edwards

Texas Abstract: Modern / Contemporary examines the development, establishment, and continued presence of abstraction in the art scene in Texas. Texas Abstract begins with a section that discusses the context of modernist abstraction and its place in the history of Texas art. The state’s first abstract painters appeared in the late 1930s and into the 1940s. By the 1950s and 1960s, abstraction had been accepted by many of the most significant Texas artists working at that time.

The book also includes a series of chapters devoted to individual contemporary abstrac-tionists currently active in Texas. These artists have embraced in their efforts the wide range of cutting-edge abstract styles of our time. These contemporary abstractions are more international in their outlook than were those of earlier Texas artists, and thus Texas is today an important place for contemporary abstraction.

Welcome to Los Angeles, America’s second-largest city and home to 3.8 million people. But L.A. didn’t start out that way. Here is a travel guide that leads you past today’s glitzy bars and eateries, the big sports centers and high-rises, to trace the city’s roots. Travel back more than two centuries to when forty-four settlers walked from Mexico to start a new life near what would become today’s downtown Los Angeles.

While decades of neglect and the developer’s bulldozer have claimed many of the orig-inal buildings, at Olvera Street, part of El Pueblo de Los Angeles Historical Monument, you can still see and touch the city’s beginnings. Join Mike Harris as he guides you along Olvera Street with its unique museums, artwork, multigeneration Mexican family shops, and restaurants.

Starting at the plaza’s kiosk, journey with Mike on an easy walking tour detailing the struggles and triumphs of creating an international city. Learn how each new culture that came to Los Angeles, from Native American, Spanish, and Mexican to African American, Chinese, French, and Italian, impacted its destiny.

The Wild That Attracts UsNew Critical Essays on Robinson Jeffers

edited By shaunanne tangney

The first collection in twenty years of essays on Robinson Jeffers, one of the great Ameri-can poets of the twentieth century, this work signals the sea change in Jeffers scholarship, as well as the increasing breadth and depth of criticism of the literature of the American West. The essays assembled here highlight issues and theories critical to Jeffers studies, among them the advance of ecocriticism, the reimagining of regionalism as place studies, the continuing development of cultural studies and the new historicism, the increasingly poignant vector of science and literature, the new formalism, particularly as it pertains to narrative verse, and the glaring omission of feminist analysis in Jeffers scholarship. Jef-fers has always appealed to a wider audience than many twentieth-century poets, and this book will speak to that general readership as well as to scholars and students.

Native Women and LandNarratives of Dispossession and Resurgence

stephanie J. fitzgeraLd

“What roles do literary and community texts and social media play in the memory, pol-itics, and lived experience of those dispossessed?” Fitzgerald asks this question in her introduction and sets out to answer it in her study of literature and social media by (pri-marily) Native women who are writing about and often actively protesting against dis-placement caused both by forced relocation and environmental disaster. By examining a range of diverse materials, including the writings of canonical Native American writers such as Louise Erdrich, Linda Hogan, and Elizabeth Cook-Lynn, and social media sites such as YouTube and Facebook, this work brings new focus to analyzing how indigenous communities and authors relate to land, while also exploring broader connections to liter-ary criticism, environmental history and justice, ecocriticism, feminist studies, and new media studies.

Unruly WatersA Social and Environmental History of the Brazos River

kenna Lang archer

Running more than 1,200 miles from headwaters in eastern New Mexico through the middle of Texas to the Gulf of Mexico, the Brazos River has frustrated developers for nearly two centuries. This environmental history of the Brazos traces the techniques that engineers and politicians have repeatedly used to try to manage its flow. The vast major-ity of projects proposed or constructed in this watershed were failures, undone by the geology of the river as much as the cost of improvement. When developers erected locks, the river changed course. When they built large-scale dams, floodwaters overflowed the concrete rims. When they constructed levees, the soils collapsed. Yet lawmakers and lay-people, boosters and engineers continued to work toward improving the river and har-nessing it for various uses. Through the plight of the Brazos River, Archer illuminates the broader commentary on the efforts to tame this nation’s rivers as well as its historical perspectives on development and technology. The struggle to overcome nature, Archer notes, reflects a quintessentially American faith in technology.

Protecting YellowstoneScience and the Politics of National Park Management

michaeL J. yochim

Yellowstone National Park looks like a pristine western landscape populated by wild bison, grizzly bears, and wolves. But the bison do not always range freely, snowmobile noise intrudes upon the park’s winter silence, and some tourist villages are located in prime grizzly bear habitat. These and other issues—including fires and the New World Mine—were the center of a policy-making controversy involving federal politicians and interested stakeholders. Yet outcomes of the controversies varied considerably, depending on politics, science, how well park managers allied themselves with external interests, and public thinking about the effects of park proposals on their access and economies. In Pro-tecting Yellowstone Michael Yochim examines the primary influences upon contemporary national park policy making and considers how those influences shaped or constrained the final policy. In addition, Yochim considers how park managers may best work within the contemporary policy-making context to preserve national parks.

The Women’s National Indian AssociationA History

edited By vaLerie sherer mathes

The Women’s National Indian Association, formed in response to the chronic conflict and corruption that plagued relations between American Indians and the U.S. govern-ment, has been all but forgotten since it was disbanded in 1951. Mathes’s edited volume is the first book to address the history of this important reform group that emerged in 1879 in reaction to the prospect of opening Oklahoma Indian Territory to white settlement. A powerful network of upper- and middle-class friends and associates, the group soon ex-panded its mission beyond prayer and philanthropy as the women participated in political protest and organized petition drives that focused on securing civil and political rights for American Indians. In addition to discussing the association’s history, the contributors to this book evaluate its legacies, both in the lives of Indian families and in the evolution of federal Indian policy. Their work reveals the complicated regional variations in reform and the complex nature of Anglo women’s relationships with indigenous people.

Prep School CowboysRanch Schools in the American West

meLissa Bingmann

Ranch schools in Arizona, California, New Mexico, and Wyoming in the 1920s and 1930s portrayed that the West embodied the moral attributes believed to be lacking in urban America. Advocates of character education saw the courage and self-reliance of the Old West as the qualities necessary to preserve the nation through the next generation. Bingmann uses ranch schools, designed to counteract the problems of inherited wealth, as a lens through which to examine citizenship, class, gender, and region during this era while illustrating that these schools, in transmitting such values to American youth, created a network of elite private schools that gave pampered boys from the urban centers of the Atlantic Seaboard and Great Lakes region the opportunity to grow into gentlemen cowboys ready to take the reins of power in family businesses and government.

“An engaging, well-researched account of the private schools that proliferated in the interwar years in the American Southwest.”

El Paso’s MuckrakerThe Life of Owen Payne White

garna L. christian

A muckraking newspaperman who was once nationally known as a historian of the West, Owen Payne White (1879–1946) brought local history to center stage and intrigued read-ers nationally with tales of the Old West. This long-overdue biography restores this over-looked writer to the forefront of western history and journalism.

White spent his early writing career as a newspaper columnist until his history of El Paso, Out of the Desert: The Historical Romance of El Paso, catapulted him into the major leagues of journalism when the publisher brought it to the attention of the New York Times and the American Mercury. White moved to New York and went on to publish eight books on the Old West, an autobiography, and dozens of articles as a staff editor at Col-lier’s. He uncovered hypocrisy, heroism, and crime, earning national recognition as well as death threats and a million-dollar lawsuit. His knowledge of Mexico also allowed him to follow leads south of the border, where he covered the aftermath of the Mexican Revo-lution. Through it all, White never lost his sardonic wit, his scrupulous directness, or his intellectual and political independence.

A Civil War History of the New Mexico Volunteers and MilitiaJerry d. thompson

The Civil War in New Mexico began in 1861 with the Confederate invasion and occupation of the Mesilla Valley. At the same time, small villages and towns in New Mexico Territory faced raids from Navajos and Apaches. In response the commander of the Department of New Mexico Colonel Edward Canby and Governor Henry Connelly recruited what be-came the First and Second New Mexico Volunteer Infantry. In this book leading Civil War historian Jerry Thompson tells their story for the first time, along with the history of a third regiment of Mounted Infantry and several companies in a fourth regiment.

Thompson’s focus is on the Confederate invasion of 1861–1862 and its effects, espe-cially the bloody Battle of Valverde. The emphasis is on how the volunteer companies were raised; who led them; how they were organized, armed, and equipped; what they endured off the battlefield; how they adapted to military life; and their interactions with New Mexico citizens and various hostile Indian groups. Thompson draws on sources that few earlier scholars have seen. He presents a comprehensive appendix that lists the names of all volunteers and militia men.

Chasing the Santa Fe RingPower and Privilege in Territorial New Mexico

david L. caffey

Anyone who has even a casual acquaintance with the history of New Mexico in the nine-teenth century has heard of the Santa Fe Ring—seekers of power and wealth in the post–Civil War period famous for public corruption and for dispossessing landholders. Surpris-ingly, however, scholars have alluded to the Ring but never really described this shadowy entity, which to this day remains a kind of black hole in New Mexico’s territorial history. Caffey looks beyond myth and symbol to explore its history. Who were its supposed mem-bers, and what did they do to deserve their unsavory reputation? Were their actions illegal or unethical? What were the roles of leading figures like Stephen B. Elkins and Thomas B. Catron? What was their influence on New Mexico’s struggle for statehood? Caffey’s book tells the story of the rise and fall of this remarkably durable alliance.

“Caffey offers a thorough study of one of the most notorious political machines of the nineteenth-century American West.”

Edmund G. RossSoldier, Senator, Abolitionist

richard a. ruddy

Thanks to John F. Kennedy’s Profiles in Courage, most twenty-first-century Americans who remember Edmund G. Ross (1826–1907) know only that he cast an important vote as a U.S. senator from Kansas that prevented the conviction of President Andrew Johnson of “high crimes and misdemeanors,” allowing Johnson to stay in office. But Ross also served as a significant abolitionist, journalist, Union officer, and, eventually, territorial governor of New Mexico, where he proved instrumental in the fight for statehood, the improvement of educational standards, and the settlement of land-grant issues. In short, Ross’s career represents the changes that the nation experienced in the second half of the nineteenth century. This first full-scale biography of Ross reveals his influential role in the history of the United States and offers a portrait of a resolute individual who often paid a price for his integrity.

Rider of the Pale HorseA Memoir of Los Alamos and Beyond

mcaLLister huLL; with amy Bianco; iLLustrations By John huLL

A scientist’s recollection of his life as a junior member of the Manhattan Project, Rider of the Pale Horse recounts McAllister Hull’s involvement in various nuclear-related enter-prises during and after World War II. Fresh from a summer job working with explosives in the chemistry department of an ordnance plant, Hull was drafted in 1943, after his freshman year in college. Unlike other accounts written by scientists and historians of that era, Hull’s narrative offers a realistic picture of the dangerous and messy job that GIs and civilian powdermen were asked to do.

Hull’s description of his postwar work supporting the Bikini Atoll tests in the Pacific and the early concerns about the effects of a hydrogen bomb explosion illuminate the Dark Age of nuclear weaponry. John Hull’s illustrations show technicians and scientists at work and bring the story to life.

“To the history and understanding of the Spanish Southwest [Bolton] has rendered as great a service as Frederick Jackson Turner rendered to the history and under-

standing of the West.”—AmericAn hiSToricAl review

Herbert Eugene Bolton’s classic of southwestern history, first published in 1949, delivers the epic account of Francisco Vásquez de Coronado’s sixteenth-century entrada to the North American frontier of the Spanish Empire. Leaving Mexico City in 1540 with some three hundred Spaniards and a large body of Indian allies, Coronado and his men—the first Europeans to explore what are now Arizona and New Mexico—continued on to the buffalo-covered plains of Texas and into Oklahoma and Kansas. With documents in hand, Bolton personally followed the path of the Coronado expedition, providing readers with unsurpassed storytelling and meticulous research.

The Spanish Colonial Settlement Land-scapes of New Mexico, 1598–1680eLinore m. Barrett

The Spanish began to settle New Mexico in the sixteenth century, and although scholars have long known the names of those settlers, this is the first book to place the colonists on the map. Using documentary, genealogical, and archaeological sources, Elinore M. Barrett depicts the settlement patterns of Spaniards in New Mexico from the beginning of colonization in 1598 up to 1680, when the Pueblo Revolt forced the colonists to retreat for a time.

Barrett describes the natural environment and the Pueblo villages that the Spanish colonists encountered, as well as the activities of the Spanish civil and religious estab-lishments related to land, labor, and tribute and the mission and mining landscapes the colonists created. She also recounts the founding and settling of Santa Fe and analyzes demographic dynamics, adding a new dimension to studies of the colonial Southwest.

Religion in New Spainedited By susan schroeder & stafford pooLe

Religion in New Spain presents an overview of the history of colonial religious culture and encompasses aspects of religion in the many regions of New Spain. The contributors reveal that Spanish conquest was not the end-all of indigenous culture and the Virgin of Guadalupe was a myth-in-the-making by locals as well as foreigners. Furthermore, nuns and priests had real lives and the institutional colonial church was seldom if ever immune to political or economic influence.

The essays, while varying in subject and content, validate the sheer pervasiveness and importance of religion in colonial Latin America while reiterating its many manifesta-tions. We can now better understand how it was particularized by individuals, groups, and institutions because of the rich, remarkable histories found in this collection.

“A welcome addition to any collection focusing on colonial Latin America or religious culture.”

Maya Imagery, Architecture, and ActivitySpace and Spatial Analysis in Art History

edited By maLine d. werness-rude & kayLee r. spencer

Maya Imagery, Architecture, and Activity privileges art historical perspectives in addressing the ways the ancient Maya organized, manipulated, created, interacted with, and con-ceived of the world around them. The Maya provide a particularly strong example of the ways in which the built and imaged environment are intentionally oriented relative to political, religious, economic, and other spatial constructs.

In examining space, the contributors of this volume demonstrate the core inter- relationships inherent in a wide variety of places and spaces, both concrete and abstract. They explore the links between spatial order and cosmic order and the possibility that such connections have sociopolitical consequences. This book will prove useful not just to Mayanists but to art historians in other fields and scholars from a variety of disciplines, including anthropology, archaeology, geography, and landscape architecture.

Of Love and Other PassionsElites, Politics, and Family in Bogotá, Colombia, 1778–1870

guiomar dueñas-vargas

In Of Love and Other Passions Guiomar Dueñas-Vargas delves into the world of emotions among the bourgeois elite in Bogotá from the end of the colonial period to 1870. While most studies of the period focus solely on the country’s political activity, Dueñas-Vargas shows how Colombia’s social, cultural, and political changes transformed the meaning of love, which contributed to the evolution of new models of femininity and masculinity.

By examining sources such as personal letters and diaries, Dueñas-Vargas presents the emotional profiles of families and couples, demonstrating how their conduct chal-lenged the established order. As lovers insisted on choosing their own mates rather than marrying spouses selected by their parents, they undermined the patriarchal structure of Colombian society. Such decisions unveil the many functions women assumed in both public and private life and how they participated in the invention of a nation.

Combining theories from the anthropology of consumption, cultural studies, and gender studies with the methodologies of social, cultural, and oral histories, Natalia Milanesio shows the exceptional cultural and social visibility of low-income consumers in postwar Argentina along with their unprecedented economic and political influence. Her study reveals the scope of the remarkable transformations fueled by the new market by exam-ining the language and aesthetics of advertisement, the rise of middle- and upper-class anxieties, and the profound changes in gender expectations.

The coeditor of People of the Peyote: Huichol Indian History, Religion, and Sur-vival (UNM Press), her current research includes eth-nographic fieldwork among the indigenous peoples of Chile and Bolivia and in the borderlands of South Texas.

Huichol Women, Weavers, and Shamansstacy B. schaefer

For centuries the Huichol (Wixárika) Indian women of Jalisco, Mexico, have been weav-ing textiles on backstrap looms. This West Mexican tradition has been passed down from mothers to daughters since pre-Columbian times. Weaving is a part of each woman’s identity—allowing them to express their ancient religious beliefs as well as to reflect the personal transformations they have undergone throughout their lives. In this book anthropologist Stacy B. Schaefer explores the technology of weaving and the spiritual and emotional meaning it holds for the women with whom she works and within their communities, which she experienced during her apprenticeship with master weavers in Wixárika families. She takes us on a dynamic journey into a realm of ancient beliefs and traditions under threat from the outside world in this fascinating ethnographic study.

“A beautiful ethnographic work. Schaefer deftly relates mythology, cosmology, family life, and economics within the spiritual practice and mechanics

of weaving. There is clearly a preservation ethos underlying Schaefer’s work, yet her depiction is not mournful, it is celebratory.”

An Archaic Mexican Shellmound and Its Entombed Floorsedited By BarBara voorhies

Tlacuachero is the site of an Archaic-period shellmound located in the wetlands of the outer coast of southwest Mexico. This book presents investigations of several constructed floors, built during the 600 to 800 years of site formation in the Archaic period (ca. 8000–2000 BCE), the crucial timespan in Mesoamerican prehistory when people were transitioning from full-blown dependency on wild resources to the use of domesti-cated crops. The constructed floors at the site are among the region’s earliest permanent architecture and are now deeply buried in a limited area within the shellmound. The authors explore what activities were carried out on their surfaces, discussing the floors’ patterns of cultural features, sediment color, density, and types of embedded microrefuse and phytoliths, as well as the chemical signatures of organic remains. The studies con-ducted at Tlacuachero are especially significant in light of the fact that data-rich lowland sites from the Archaic period are extraordinarily rare.

Vilcabamba and the Archaeology of Inca ResistanceBrian s. Bauer, Javier fonseca santa cruz, & miriam aráoz siLva

The sites of Vitcos and Espíritu Pampa are two of the most important Inca cities within the remote Vilcabamba region of Peru. The province has gained notoriety among histo-rians, archaeologists, and other students of the Inca, since it was from here that the last independent Incas waged a nearly forty-year-long war (AD 1536–1572) against Spanish control of the Andes. Building on three years of excavation and two years of archival work, the authors discuss the events that took place in this area, speaking to the complex relationships that existed between the Europeans and Andeans during the decades that Vilcabamba was the final stronghold of the Inca empire. This has long been a topic of in-terest for the public; the results of the first large-scale scientific research conducted in the region will be illuminating for scholars as well as for general readers who are enthusiasts of this period of history and archaeology.

Rural Archaeology in Early Urban Northern MesopotamiaExcavations at Tell al-Raqa’i

edited By gLenn m. schwartz

This book presents the results of the extensive excavation of a small, rural village from the period of emerging cities in upper Mesopotamia in the early to middle third millennium BC. Prior studies of early Near Eastern urban societies generally focused on the cities and elites, neglecting the rural component of urbanization. This research represents part of a move to rectify that imbalance. Reports on the architecture, pottery, animal bones, plant remains, and other varieties of artifacts and ecofacts enhance our understanding of the role of villages in the formation of urban societies, the economic relationship between small ru-ral sites and urban centers, and status and economic differentiation in villages. Among the significant results are the extensive exposure of a large segment of the village area, revealing details of spatial and social organization and household economics. The predominance of large-scale grain storage and processing leads to questions of staple finance, economic rela-tions with pastoralists, and connections to developing urban centers.
