Item description from seller

Front and rear hinge cracked; else in Very Good condition. A profile of the state of New Mexico and its people (by various authors). It provides an in-depth look at the geography, economy, government, and culture of New Mexico. The authors also provide tips for travelers to the state, as well as descriptions of some of the most popular tourist destinations in New Mexico. With much on cowboys, cattle, Billy the Kid, El Fego Baca, and more. Also includes "The Lure of the High Country" by Bob Boyd (who lived on the famous Vermejo Ranch), "Boyhood Bucks" by S. Omar Barker (about Mule Deer Hunting), and "The Truth, the Whole Truth." by Thomas Edwing Dabney (Deer Hunting). S. Omar Barker, for example (1894 ? 1985), was an American cowboy poet, politician rancher, and teacher in New Mexico. He published many books, including Vientos de las Sierras (1924), Buckaroo Ballads (1928) and Rawhide Rhymes: Singing Poems of the Old West (Doubleday, 1968). He won the Western Writers of America Spur Award twice and was the 1967 recipient of the Levi Strauss Saddleman Award for bringing honor and dignity to the Western legend. In 1975 he was named an honorary president of WWA, of which he was one of the founding fathers and an early president. Elsa also served a term as president. In 1978 he was the first living author to be inducted into the Hall of Fame of Great Westerners in the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City.
