Mexican Americans Recall a Southwestern Past
By Patricia Preciado Martin

Paper (978-0-8165-0803-7)

Some Hispanic Americans living today can recall a time when barrio or ranch life was marked by a simplicity and neighborliness that has vanished with progress. These thirteen first-person accounts of southern Arizona residents capture a spirit evocative of the Hispanic presence in the Southwest-whether in San Antonio, Santa Fe, Pueblo, or Los Angeles¿while striking photographs reflect the grace and dignity of these indomitable individuals.
