Published in 1995, this book shows the slow evolution by New Mexicans to add new elements to their lifestyle which had been passed on to them from their elders. Black and white photos illustrate the mixing of Native American traditions with Anglo-American innovations which were usually viewed with initial suspicion. Over-sized book with many interviews with local people on their reasons for their life choices (e.g., pro/con for working at Los Alamos). Might be interesting for those looking for ethnic studies, Native Americans, or popular Catholicism. ( ) sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
"The Espanola Valley, in direct line of sight from Georgia O'Keeffe's Ghost Ranch and the inspiration for many of her paintings, contains several of the oldest towns on the continent, including the twelfth-century Tewa pueblo known as Ohke, renamed San Juan de los Caballeros by the first territorial governor of New Mexico." "Ancient Indian pueblos, visited by Spaniards before the pilgrims set foot on Plymouth Rock, are today inhabited by descendants of the Native Americans who arrived in the valley a thousand years before Coronado's 1640 expedition. Their stories, alongside those of contemporary Mexicans, Spanish-Americans, and Anglos, are revealed here in words and stunning photographs by Douglas Kent Hall."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
