Publisher's Synopsis
In 1963 the Dona Ana County Historical Society initiated the publication of a historical journal to chronicle the rich and varied history of Southern New Mexico. The annually distributed SOUTHERN NEW MEXICO HISTORICAL REVIEW has over the years covered a range of topics from the settling of the region and the personalities that shaped its unique character to United States Military actions in the Southwest from the nineteenth century Indian wars to the border incursions of the early twentieth century. 2012 marks New Mexico's statehood centennial. In honor of that celebration the Dona Ana County Historical Society has compiled this anthology of representative articles from its REVIEW to make more widely available some of its outstanding contributions to the historiography of the Southwest Borderlands.
