Download or read book Fort Union and the Santa Fe Trail written by Robert M. Utley and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fort Union was established in 1851 by Colonel Edwin V. Sumner in the Wolf Creek Valley of New Mexico. It was an important point on the Santa Fe Trail until 1879, when the coming of the railroad changed the trading patterns that had started with the trail in 1821. Evidence of the past, in the form of crumblings [sic] walls and eroding ruts cut by wagons traversing the prairies, may be seen at Fort Union National monument. Visitors may note that six miles to the south, the Mountain Branch of the Santa Fe Trail joined the Cimarron Branch, the ruts still visible from the entrance road to the monument. The author of this study, Robert M. Utley, first researched Fort Union while he was with the National Park Service. He revised and updated his earlier material on the historic site for this study. Since retiring from the Park Service in 1980, he has devoted his time to writing. Two of his nonfiction works, an account of the Lincoln County War in New Mexico and a biography of Custer, won back-to-back Western Heritage awards from the National Cowboy Hall of Fame in 1988 and 1989 -- Back cover.
Download or read book Honor and Defiance written by James Bailey Blackshear and published by Sunstone Press. This book was released on 2015-03-10 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1835, a petition for land far from Santa Fe, New Mexico was awarded to pobladores (settlers) willing to relocate to the eastern edge of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Founded along the Gallinas River, the settlement became the Las Vegas Land Grant. The history of this grant is the history of New Mexico. On this 496,000 acre community grant, beliefs about land and faith were intertwined within a system of shared sacredness. In the 1890s, Anglo-American merchants and cattlemen joined with Hispano elites in the first concerted effort to wrest control of this grant from its original owners and heirs. The heart of this book investigates how a rural nuevo-mexicano (New Mexican) movement on the Las Vegas Land Grant evolved from burning barns and cutting fences to political activism and success at the ballot box. It also examines the history of New Mexico land grants, Hispano mountain culture, the origination of the town footprint, the boom of Territorial Las Vegas, and the cultural diversity that existed within the two distinct towns that emerged when the railroad came to Las Vegas in 1879. Honor and Defiance details the impact of American expansion into a well-established Hispano urban center, and highlights the robust nature of nuevo-mexicano spirit, determination, and ingenuity on the Las Vegas Land Grant. The book also includes photographs of Las Vegas, leaders of the period, and the land they fought for.
