Probably no other volume exists that better suggests the breadth of visual resources depicting New Mexicos history.
"This concise history combines more than 200 photographs to create a panoramic view of New Mexico's fascinating past."
"This is a wonderful book. . . . The book is more than an illustrated history of the Land of Enchantment. It's a book full of quotable historical quotes."
This is history as it should be presented, unfiltered and unvarnished, tapping directly into the original sources, without a lot of embellishment. . . . It invites readers to share in the excitement of history in the making.
"The book is factual and readable and fills a noticeable void in regional scholarship. Chávez provides an enjoyable, no-nonsense illustrated history that teachers, students, scholars, and history devotees will embrace for years to come."
Thomas E. Chavez is currently Director of the National Hispanic Cultural Center in Albuquerque.
