Step
inside the pages of New Mexico
Territorial Era Caricatures and learn about the men who made New Mexico
what it is. See their likenesses and read about them. Druggists, farmers,
postmasters. Many in these pages were just ordinary men who were concerned
about running their businesses, making a living, and providing for their
families. If they had time they attended lodge meetings and helped make their
community a better place in which to live. But there were others. They made
their mark on a larger territorial stage. Governors, senators, land
speculators, educators, military men, influential newspaper editors. They were
true movers and shakers. What all these men in this book had in common was
their love for New Mexico and their desire to make it better. Some of these men
you thought you knew. Learn anew. Others you have never heard of. This book
will make you wish you had. Discover hidden facets and see their likeness drawn
at their height of their renown by a master illustrator, Harry Samuel Palmer.
