Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Herbert Eugene Bolton, who was well-known for his books on the Southwest and Spanish Americas, here recounts in detail Francisco Vasquez de Coronado’s sixteenth-century entrada to the North American frontier of the Spanish Empire. In retracing Coronado’s route, Professor Bolton—with access to new information—was able to relive the experiences of the original exploration. Originally published in 1949, he brings fresh insight and profound knowledge to CORONADO: Knight of Pueblos and Plains. “Thoroughly documented, this tells of the search for El Dorado, the preliminary explorations of Fray Marcos seeking the Seven Cities of Cibola, Alarcon’s voyage, the discovery of the Colorado, the explorations of Coronado and his lieutenants...Then there are Coronado’s later years as governor of Nueva Galicia, his trial and acquittal.”—Kirkus Review

  • Publisher : University of Texas Press
  • Release : 2010-06-28
  • ISBN : 0292789408
  • Pages : 430 pages

Download or read book Coronado s Children written by J. Frank Dobie and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-06-28 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This is the best work ever written on hidden treasure, and one of the most fascinating books on any subject to come out of Texas.” —Basic Texas Books Written in 1930, Coronado’s Children was one of J. Frank Dobie’s first books, and the one that helped gain him national prominence as a folklorist. In it, he recounts the tales and legends of those hardy souls who searched for buried treasure in the Southwest following in the footsteps of that earlier gold seeker, the Spaniard Coronado. “These people,” Dobie writes in his introduction, “no matter what language they speak, are truly Coronado’s inheritors . . . I have called them Coronado’s children. They follow Spanish trails, buffalo trails, cow trails, they dig where there are no trails; but oftener than they dig or prospect they just sit and tell stories of lost mines, of buried bullion by the jack load . . .” This is the tale-spinning Dobie at his best, dealing with subjects as irresistible as ghost stories and haunted houses. “As entrancing a volume as one is likely to pick up in a month of Sundays.” —The New York Times “Dobie has discovered for us a native Arabian Night.” —Chicago Evening Post

Book The Coronado Expedition to Tierra Nueva

Download or read book The Coronado Expedition to Tierra Nueva written by Richard Flint and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2004-05-20 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Coronado Expedition to Tierra Nueva is an engaging record of key research by archaeologists, ethnographers, historians, and geographers concerning the first organized European entrance into what is now the American Southwest and northwestern Mexico. In search of where the expedition went and what peoples it encountered, this volume explores the fertile valleys of Sonora, the basins and ranges of southern Arizona, the Zuni pueblos and the Rio Grande Valley of New Mexico, and the Llano Estacado of the Texas panhandle. The twenty-one contributors to the volume have pursued some of the most significant lines of research in the field in the last fifty years; their techniques range from documentary analysis and recording traditional stories to detailed examination of the landscape and excavation of campsites and Indian towns. With more confidence than ever before, researchers are closing in on the route of the conquistadors.
