Book excerpt: Dr. Peter Flawn, president-emeritus of the University of Texas, Austin, began life as a geologist. After a stint in World War II, he teamed up with another geologist, Philip W. Beckley, to explore and develop an old Spanish silver mine in a remote, mountainous area of the state of Durango, Mexico, known as the barancas. Beckley was a true soldier of fortune, flying in and out of the site with a small plane, the only way to reach the Santa Cruz mine. This personal memoir includes the decisions and actions of the Dougherty family of Beeville, Texas, the de facto owners of the mine properties, and others closely associated with the project both from Texas and Mexico. Beckley's tragic death, either by accident or by a bandit, eventually closed the project. Dr. Flawn retired after a career in university education and dedicated his memoirs to his old friend, describing their association from the period of 1966 to 1972. The author also provides a history of the Santa Cruz mine from 1908 until 1966, as told through reports and letters from a succession of mine managers.

This book was released on 2015-08-15 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The states of Northern Mexico—Tamaulipas, Nuevo León, Coahuila, Chihuahua, Durango, Sonora, Sinaloa, and Baja California Norte and Sur—have architecture, urbanism, and landscape design that offer numerous lessons in how to build well, but this constructed environment is largely undervalued or unknown. To make this architecture better known to a wide professional, academic, and public audience, this book presents the first comprehensive overview in either English or Spanish of the architecture, urban landscapes, and cities of Northern Mexico from the country's emergence as a modern nation in 1821 to the present day. Profusely illustrated with color and black-and-white photographs, maps, and analytical drawings of urban cores of major cities, The Architecture and Cities of Northern Mexico systematically examines significant works of architecture in large cities and small towns in each state, from the earliest buildings in the urban core to the newest at the periphery. Edward R. Burian describes the most memorable works of architecture in each city in greater detail in terms of their spatial organization, materials, and sensory experience. He also includes a concise geographical and historical summary of the region that provides a useful background for the discussions of the works of architecture. Burian concludes the book with a brief commentary on lessons learned and possible futures for the architectural culture of the region, as well as the first comprehensive biographical listing of the architects practicing in Northern Mexico during the past two centuries.

Download or read book The Silver of the Sierra Madre written by John Mason Hart and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2022-07-12 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the great barranca known today as Copper Canyon, the small mining town of Batopilas once experienced a silver bonanza among the largest ever known. American investors, believing that Mexico offered an unexploited cornucopia, began purchasing mines in the Sierra Madre, seeking to expand their hold on natural resources outside U.S. borders. From 1861 until the Revolution of 1910, the men of the Batopilas Mining Company ruled the region using their wealth, armed might, and extensive connections. The technology, industrialism, and politics their interests brought to this remote community tied the Tarahumara, Yaqui, Mayo, and other peoples of the barrancas directly to the economies of the United States and China. Local society was revolutionized, and a dramatic tapestry of human interactions was created. Based on many volumes of mining company records, The Silver of the Sierra Madre exposes the mentality and methods of mine owners John Robinson and Alexander “Boss” Shepherd, vividly detailing their exploitation of the people and the natural resources of Chihuahua. Hart aptly demonstrates the human and financial losses resulting from President Porfirio Díaz’s development programs, which relied on foreign investors, foreign managers, and foreign technology. This unprecedented work also provides a highly interesting ethnographic and social description of one of the least-known areas of Mexico. It is a tale of power and desperation, respect and arrogance, adventure and tragedy, and, ultimately, triumph and survival.
