{"product_id":"forgotten-tales-of-new-mexico-ellen-dornan-9781540206664","title":"Forgotten Tales of New Mexico","description":"New Mexico, a place defined by a history of grand conflicts, conquistadores, Pueblo warriors, and nuclear scientists, will celebrate its state centennial in 2012. What better time for a collection of forgotten tales that recounts the adventures and exploits of priests, soldiers, witches, and politicians, who carved out a living in the harsh frontier. Ellen will introduce the reader to a cross-dressing Buffalo Soldier, a French trailblazer who opened a road from Santa Fe to Texas, an American spy who became a Mexican general, a Mexican raised by the Navajo who helped round up the Din for removal, and a governor whose head was removed and used as a football. Spanning from the 17th century to World War II, these stories are drawn from Native oral histories as well as the state's written records, and provide a sampling of New Mexico's colorful past.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ellen Dornan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1540206661\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781540206664\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press Library Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/27\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 178\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.44d","brand":"Ellen Dornan","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45477120966911,"sku":"9781540206664","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1213e8c3-6add-46c6-a571-832b2134e3bc.jpg?v=1715919107","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/forgotten-tales-of-new-mexico-ellen-dornan-9781540206664","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
