Softcover. Condition: Very Good. In Very Good+ condition. The Desert environment leaves its stark impress upon plants, animals, and men. And Ross Calvin tells the beautifully strange story of New Mexico--its ancient culture, the coming of the Spanish friars, the Spanish occupation, pueblo life, the Apaches and their long warfare with the whites, cattle and sheep raising and cowboys and outlaws, and the old trails, and the coming of the railroads--treating all these in the light of the physical features and physical conditions of the country. Calvin knew New Mexico intimately, and he writes of his observations and experiences in his rides and tramps through the region. His novel point of view and material afford a unique approach to the arid American Southwest. The journalist Ernie Pyle, who lived in Albuquerque with his wife for a period in 1942, stated that Calvin's book was ''our Southwestern Bible,'' and the famed Western librarian and critic Lawrence Clark Powell gave his imprimatur when he called it the ''finest single book about New Mexico.''.

First Edition
Paperback. First Ed thus, so stated. Fine in Wraps: binding square and secure; text clean. Virtually 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. 333pp. Illustrated by Peter Hurd. First Ed thus, so stated. Paperback. Sky, says Ross Calvin, determines everything in the Southwest: weather, landscape, plant and animal forms, human types, even art and architecture, religious rites and manner of dress. Altogether this is an authentic book, valuable as an introduction to a region of strange beauty and as an exposition of some little understood aspects of our history. Sky Determines has become a regional classic. In this revised Third Edition, the author has renewed the book with fifty pages of fresh materials, drawn from decades of observing the Southwest.
