Críticas

"Probably no other volume exists that better suggests the breadth of visual resources depicting New Mexico's history." "An absolute must for anyone with an interest in the expansive panorama of our past." 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."

Reseña del editor

Originally published in 1992, 'An Illustrated History of New Mexico' combines over two hundred photographs and a concise history to create an engaging, panoramic view of New Mexico's fascinating past. For thousands of years various cultures have filtered into New Mexico, and each has adapted to the land. New Mexico has become a cosmopolitan society of many nationalities and ethnicities, all influenced by those who came before, and all part of a distinctive New Mexican culture that thrives today.
