In these poignantly written stories of Tenorio Flat, the Apodacas, the Abeytas, and Archaletas...Carmencita, Manuelito, and Tomasito...with hundreds of others of Hispanic origin go about their lives at an unhurried pace. Indeed, Mrs. Apodaca is sympathetic toward the “Anglo ladies...busy, busy...with the club, the PTA, the teléfono, the hair-drier, the book-of-the-month,” but she walks serenely away from their troubles. Even the depredation of small neighbors have a grace all their own in Tenorio Flat. Anglo neighbors know from much experience that the chuckling youngsters who said their lilac hedges will soon be tapping on their doors. With shy but elegant courtesy, they will present nosegays, filched from Anglo bushes. A wonderful collection of happy and carefree stories!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To readers of Dorothy Pillsbury’s books, the residents of Tenorio Flat in Santa Fe are old friends. The forty sketches that make up this volume, first published in 1959, reintroduce the author’s Spanish-American, Indian, and Anglo neighbors, describing their ingenuity in adapting to the modern ways of life that have come eyen to tradition-steeped Santa Fe. Roots in Adobe brings us the further adventures of the delightful Apodaca family. We see Mrs. Apodaca as she comes to grips with new-fangled voting machines and screw-back earrings, and we watch her youngest daughter, Carmencita, grow up with her muy guapo boyfriends, who are the joy and despair of the neighborhood. Cousin Canuto, another old acquaintance, campaigns to restore la atmósfera to Old Santa Fe, with surprising results. Also a part of life in Tenorio Flat are Mrs. Pillsbury’s Anglo, and Indian friends. One of the most charming is the vigorous Indian Great-Grandmother, whose favorite pastime is watching baseball games between Pueblo teams. These sketches, says the Christian Science Monitor, show us ‘an aspect of life where money and time count for little, but love and laughter a great deal.’

Download or read book The King of Adobe written by Lorena Oropeza and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2019-08-13 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1967, Reies Lopez Tijerina led an armed takeover of a New Mexico courthouse in the name of land rights for disenfranchised Spanish-speaking locals. The small-scale raid surprisingly thrust Tijerina and his cause into the national spotlight, catalyzing an entire generation of activists. The actions of Tijerina and his group, the Alianza Federal de Mercedes (the Federal Alliance of Land Grants), demanded that Americans attend to an overlooked part of the country's history: the United States was an aggressive empire that had conquered and colonized the Southwest and subsequently wrenched land away from border people—Mexicans and Native Americans alike. To many young Mexican American activists at the time, Tijerina and the Alianza offered a compelling and militant alternative to the nonviolence of Cesar Chavez and Martin Luther King Jr. Tijerina's place at the table among the nation's leading civil rights activists was short-lived, but his analysis of land dispossession and his prophetic zeal for the rights of his people was essential to the creation of the Chicano movement. This fascinating full biography of Tijerina (1926–2015) offers a fresh and unvarnished look at one of the most controversial, criticized, and misunderstood activists of the civil rights era. Basing her work on painstaking archival research and new interviews with key participants in Tijerina's life and career, Lorena Oropeza traces the origins of Tijerina's revelatory historical analysis to the years he spent as a Pentecostal preacher and his hidden past as a self-proclaimed prophet of God. Confronting allegations of anti-Semitism and accusations of sexual abuse, as well as evidence of extreme religiosity and possible mental illness, Oropeza's narrative captures the life of a man--alternately mesmerizing and repellant--who changed our understanding of the American West and the place of Latinos in the fabric of American struggles for equality and self-determination.

In 35 stories she takes us to the winter ceremonies of New Mexico. We watch with her the ancient Zuni rite of the Shalako gods; we are lit by the glow of farolitos on adobe roofs and feel the crunch of clean snow in the mountain lanes. Best of all, we are taken through adobe doorways into the homes of friends and neighbors, like those of Tenorio Flat, where the welcome is warm and the way of life gentler perhaps than it is today. More than a Christmas book, this is a shining string of tales for all seasons.

Each year he trains thousands of Lightroom users at his "Lightroom Live!" tour and through that he’s learned what really works, what doesn’t, and he tells you flat out which techniques work best, which to avoid, and why. The entire book is laid out in a real workflow order with everything step by step, so you can begin using Lightroom like a pro from the start. What really sets this book apart is the last chapter. This is where Scott dramatically answers his #1 most-asked Lightroom question, which is: "Exactly what order am I supposed to do things in, and where does Photoshop fit in?" You’ll see Scott’s entire start-to-finish Lightroom 4 workflow and learn how to incorporate it into your own workflow. Scott knows first-hand the challenges today’s digital photographers are facing, and what they want to learn next to make their workflow faster, easier, and more fun. He has incorporated all of that into this major update for Lightroom 4. It’s the first and only book to bring the whole process together in such a clear, concise, and visual way. Plus, the book includes a special chapter on integrating Adobe Photoshop seamlessly into your workflow, and you’ll also learn some of Scott’s latest Photoshop portrait retouching techniques and special effects, which take this book to a whole new level. There is no faster, more straight-to-the-point, or more fun way to learn Lightroom than with this groundbreaking book.
