- Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2019Excellent information about the Pueblo Indians.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2011Part of the Southwest Heritage Series from Sunstone Press in Santa Fe, NM, this book is a facsimile edition of the author's original book that came out in 1888. Susan E. Wallace was the wife of Lew Wallace, Governor of New Mexico Territory from 1878-1881. When they moved to the southwest she began sending articles to magazines and literary publications. With an eye for detail and a knack for being the right places, when it came to recognizing important moments, whether in history of a place or daily life, she was there.
In this book she shares her observations about the land, the customs and the mix of inhabitants that she finds. Her journey West starts first by rail and then by buckboard. She details her first encounter with Native Americans and her first visit to an Indian ceremony. Wallace writes about forcing open a heavy wooden door into a locked and forgotten room in the Palace of the Governors in Santa Fe. What she uncovered was a pile of jumbled papers, some of them dating back to the 1600s. The Land of Pueblos documents the past by a person who was truly in the land where she lived.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2019I found the writing absolutely beautiful. I completely agree with the second reviewer about this wonderful book. I was able to get an inexpensive first edition, so I don’t know anything about the facsimile one. The book is also widely available as a free download on the Internet if you want to look at it before buying. published in 1888, it is one of few truly valuable memoirs of New Mexico by an Anglo woman. She traveled all over what is now New Mexico, Arizona, and part of Mexico. She wrote about what she saw for various magazines at the time. This book is a collection of those articles, although they are not attributed. She explains in beautiful detail what it was like to travel around and sightsee. I especially liked the parts about the mining operations she visited. She also writes about the forgotten archive she discovered and other book related experiences. She details what it was like to travel and sleep and eat on these sightseeing journeys decades before there were comfortable accommodations for travelers.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 8, 2015May have interest from an historical or anthropological standpoint but the writing style makes this almost unreadable.
