Book excerpt: Excerpt from Interesting Items Regarding New Mexico: Its Agricultural, Pastoral and Mineral Resources, People, Climate, Soil, Scenery, Etc The resources of the Rocky Mountains, especially that portion which is included within the limits of New Mexico and Arizona, being scarcely known or appreciated, I propose to give a description of it as to its properties and the natural laws which must eventually give it position and character among the divisions of the United States, believing that the vast extent of territory, and the immense mineral wealth which it contains, will erelong justify its more full exploration, and the formation of a state in the Union. This country is not a Garden of Eden. On the contrary, the superficial observer would place his ideas of desolation, within its limits; yet, if he examines closely, he will find an oasis amid the desert, and elements of wealth such as it is the fortune of few countries to possess.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through a compelling story about the conflict over a notorious Mexican-period land grant in northern New Mexico, David Correia examines how law and property are constituted through violence and social struggle. Spain and Mexico populated what is today New Mexico through large common property land grants to sheepherders and agriculturalists. After the U.S.-Mexican War the area saw rampant land speculation and dubious property adjudication. Nearly all of the huge land grants scattered throughout New Mexico were rejected by U.S. courts or acquired by land speculators. Of all the land grant conflicts in New Mexico's history, the struggle for the Tierra Amarilla land grant, the focus of Correia's story, is one of the most sensational, with numerous nineteenth-century speculators ranking among the state's political and economic elite and a remarkable pattern of resistance to land loss by heirs in the twentieth century. Correia narrates a long and largely unknown history of property conflict in Tierra Amarilla characterized by nearly constant violence--night riding and fence cutting, pitched gun battles, and tanks rumbling along the rutted dirt roads of northern New Mexico. The legal geography he constructs is one that includes a surprising and remarkable cast of characters: millionaire sheep barons, Spanish anarchists, hooded Klansmen, Puerto Rican terrorists, and undercover FBI agents. By placing property and law at the center of his study, Properties of Violence provocatively suggests that violence is not the opposite of property but rather is essential to its operation.
Download or read book Life of Tom Candy Ponting written by Tom Candy Ponting and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2018-12-12 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cattle driving was a major economic activity in the 19th century American West, particularly between 1856 and 1896. Texas Longhorns were a tough breed of cattle, in a tough place—Texas. And tough were the men that drove them. Two such men, though hardly men at all, had a plan. Young Tom Candy Ponting, the son of a farmer from Somerset, England, and his partner, Washington Malone, had heard stories of the availability of cattle in Texas. The durable, hardy Texas cattle were practically running wild and could be bought for next to nothing. Ponting and Malone would buy, herd and sell cattle, all the time saving their money, so they could ride to Texas and buy Longhorns. They’d drive them all the way to New York—something that had never been done before. The trip would take over a year, so the cattle would winter in the Midwest and fatten on corn. The drive and the corn would turn an “$8 to $12 dollar steer” from Texas, into an “$80 to a $100 dollar steer” in New York. The present volume contains Tom Candy Ponting’s recollections of his time as a drover. Written on the urging of his children, Ponting’s memoirs were originally published in very limited numbers in 1907, and then again in 1952 in revised format.
Download or read book Santa Rita del Cobre written by Christopher J. Huggard and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2020-01-27 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An account of the rise and fall of a mining town over two centuries, including photos: “An excellent story of the people and their community.” ―New Mexico Historical Review The Spanish, Mexicans, and Americans, successively, mined copper for more than two hundred years in Santa Rita, New Mexico. Starting in 1799 after an Apache man led the Spanish to the native copper deposits, miners at the site followed industry developments in the nineteenth century to create a network of underground mines. In the early twentieth century these works became part of the Chino Copper Company’s open-pit mining operations—operations that would overtake Santa Rita by 1970. In Santa Rita del Cobre, Christopher Huggard and Terrence Humble detail these developments with in-depth explanations of mining technology, and describe the effects on and consequences for the workers, the community, and the natural environment. Originally known as El Cobre, the mining-military camp of Santa Rita del Cobre ultimately became the company town of Santa Rita, which after World War II evolved into an independent community. From the town’s beginnings to its demise, its mixed-heritage inhabitants from Mexico and the United States cultivated rich family, educational, religious, social, and labor traditions. Extensive archival photographs, many taken by officials of the Kennecott Copper Corporation, accompany the text, providing an important visual and historical record of a town swallowed up by the industry that created it.
