The Student's History of New Mexico

The Student's History of New Mexico

pokkari
L. Bradford Prince was one of seven territorial governors who attended the January 15th inauguration of New Mexico's first state governor, William C. McDonald, in New Mexico's long-awaited statehood year, 1912. Within a year of that auspicious occasion, Prince published "A Concise History of New Mexico," a condensation and revision of his "Historical Sketches" of 1883. His purpose in 1913 was to provide a "little volume" that might be of use in the now-required teaching of New Mexico history in the state's public schools. The passage of a public school bill during his term as governor had been considered an important step toward the attainment of statehood. The publication of a state history textbook was meant to be an important contribution to New Mexico public education once statehood had been achieved. But within a year of its publication, Prince affirmed that the length and price of the already brief "Concise History" was excessive for most public schools and students. While still recommending "A Concise History" for teachers and most adults, Prince offered an even more focused, 174-page work, entitled "The Student's History of New Mexico." Now, instead of using history to argue the case for New Mexico statehood, Prince's chief goal was to use history to help create pride in New Mexico for the "clear-eyed, pure hearted, noble minded youth" of the nation's newest state. These future citizens could take pride in both their past, "the most interesting of all American state histories," and in the special qualities of individual groups whose collective story was "unrivaled in ancient or modern times." Convinced that "The Student's History" had served its purpose well, Prince later updated his book with an additional ten pages about New Mexico's first few years of statehood. This second edition of "The Student's History" appeared in 1921, a year before Prince's death, and this is the edition Sunstone Press is publishing in its Southwest Heritage Series. The second edition of "The Student's History" is also offered as a brief history of New Mexico of value to the general reader sophisticated enough to recognize its biases, but astute enough to appreciate its many facts. If this unique telling of New Mexico's past adds to our pride in being New Mexicans-or helps others to better understand New Mexico-then L. Bradford Prince will have achieved his purpose long after he departed his beloved New Mexico, once a striving territory and now a productive member of the nation's family of states.

Pioneer Jewish Families in New Mexico

Pioneer Jewish Families in New Mexico

Pioneer Jewish Families in New Mexico challenges the simplistic myth of the "tri-cultural" composition of New Mexico history, focusing on the contributions of German and Eastern European Jews to late 19th and early 20th- century New Mexico. Based on oral history interviews with descendants of these pioneers, supplemented with impeccable archival research, and richly illustrated with photographs, the authors of these family histories weave a rich tapestry documenting the historical contexts in Europe, which motivated young Jewish men and women to embark on the voyage across the Atlantic Ocean, followed by the difficult overland trek by wagon train and rail to the US Southwest. The contributors to this volume contrast the closed, and oftentimes anti-Semitic culture of Europe with the more tolerant, and welcoming environment of New Mexico. This book is a "must" for inclusion on the bookshelf of anyone interested in the multiethnic history of the state.Stanley M. Hordes, Ph.D., Former New Mexico State Historian and author of To the End of the Earth: A History of the Crypto-Jews of New Mexico (NY: Columbia University Press, 2005)

In February 1995, Richey Edwards checked out of a London hotel instead of flying to the US with the rest of the Manic Street Preachers. There were a few subsequent sightings but then nothing. His body was never found, and he was declared legally dead in November 2008. Now Richard tells the story of his life – and disappearance – as he might have told it. ‘This moving, tender novel tells the story of a lost boy adrift in a world that he can’t make sense of’ Marie Claire ‘Myers deserves credit not only for adding a third dimension to Edwards, but for trying a fourth, for attempting to document a period of his life that seems destined to remain a mystery’ The Times ‘A sympathetic and sad imagining of the boy who became a reluctant pop idol’ Time Out ‘Harrowing and hauntingly sad’ Mojo

Vers l'automne de 1830, par une soir e froide et pluvieuse, une chaise de poste, qui suivait la route d'Angers Nantes, quitta brusquement le grand chemin pour prendre un sentier enfonc dans les terres. Il faisait une affreuse nuit. Le vent sifflait travers les arbres; les rameaux d pouill s craquaient; les orfraies criaient dans le creux des ch nes. chaque instant, les chevaux, d courag s, refusaient d'avancer; le postillon jurait, et la chaise, battue par la tourmente, mena ait de s'ab mer dans les orni res des sentiers effondr s. Pas une toile ne brillait au ciel, pas une lumi re dans le paysage; des aboiements plaintifs qui se m laient, longs intervalles, aux g missements de la bise, r v laient seuls quelques habitations loign es. Au milieu de cette sc ne d sol e, la voiture tait, l'int rieur, silencieuse comme un tombeau: pas un mouvement, pas un bruit de voix qui trah t au dedans l'inqui tude ou l'impatience; on e t dit le voyage d'un mort gagnant sa demeure derni re. Enfin, au bout de quelques heures, les chevaux galop rent sur un terrain ferme et sonore, entre une double rang e de platanes; le fouet du postillon donna joyeusement la fanfare d'arriv e, et la chaise s'arr ta bient t devant le perron du vieux ch teau de Beaumeillant...
