About this book

First published in 1931, this is the complete history of Santa Fe, New Mexico written by Santa Fe native, Ruth Laughlin. Drawing on her extensive research and thorough personal understanding, the author covers all aspects of Spanish-American traditions, customs, and culture. She captures the elusive quality which makes the atmosphere of the city so appealing and writes with fluent ease of the history of the Southwest from the days of the Conquistadores. She covers every aspect of the life of the region including the political situation of the time with its Japanese Detention Camp, its art, its crafts, its architecture, and of the land and its climate.
