This book brings it to life with insightful text, photographs, maps and suggested driving tours. History, folkways, economics, agriculture, natural resources and technology are brought together to create a vivid impression of how this remote corner of the country was settled.Wilson, Chris is the author of 'LA Tierra Amarilla Its History, Architecture, and Cultural Landscape', published 1992 under ISBN 9780890132418 and ISBN 0890132410.
