| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc | Following the great highways that criss-cross the state, the author finds them a magic carpet from which to survey the "Land of Enchantment" which is New Mexico. Joyously she introduces the reader to a state which is unique in its cultural heritage--American, Spanish, Indian and Mexican influences blend together to create New Mexico's special charm. Doris Smith's travels take her far and wide in the state and far, far back in history. As a competent researcher she gathers many interesting facts about Indian dances, beliefs and customs--about a fiesta at Tomé and Intertribal Ceremonies at Winslow. She discusses the Basket-maker Indians who once lived near Carlsbad and the anthropological importance of the Folsom Diggings. In a lighter vein, she relates fascinating bits of Wild West lore about such characters as Billy the Kid and Kit Carson, whose nephew, William Kit Carson, she meets on one of her trips. While relishing all the differences that make travel through New Mexico so rewarding, Mrs. Smith never gives the impression that she is reporting on a foreign land. In fact she maintains a proud instance that this state, too, is one of ours. Jacket. |
