Santa Fe: 400 Years, 400 Questions
''The brain teasers collected in this book encapsulate historical nuggets drawn from New Mexico's dramatic past. Reading them, New Mexicans and others can test their knowledge of our local history and have fun in the bargain.'' --Marc Simmons, historian and author of numerous books about New Mexico history''From its ancient beginnings to modern times, Santa Fe's history offers plenty of room for questions, and readers will find challenging, as well as entertaining, answers here.'' --Martin W. Aguilar, former governor of San Ildefonso Pueblo, New Mexico''The advantage to the nonchronological approach is that it reveals surprises as the reader turns the pages. The book presents scholarly information drawn from archives and published works as well as questions from visitors and recent arrivals to the City Different, and anecdotes from individuals whose families have been here for generations.'' --From the introduction by Adrian Bustamante, ethnohistorian and retired Southwest Studies professor
