Book Description
In what follows can be found the doors to a house of words and stories. This house of words and stories is the "Archive of New Mexico" and the doors are each of the documents contained within it. Like any house, New Mexico's archive has a tale of its own origin and a complex history. Although its walls have changed many times, its doors and the encounters with those doors hold stories known and told and others not yet revealed. In the Archives, there are thousands of doors (4,481) that open to a time of kings and popes, of inquisition and revolution. "These archives," writes Ralph Emerson Twitchell, "are by far the most valuable and interesting of any in the Southwest." Many of these documents were given a number by Twitchell, small stickers that were appended to the first page of each document, an act of heresy to archivists and yet these stickers have now become part of the artifact. These are the doors that Ralph Emerson Twitchell opened at the dawn of the 20th century with a key that has served scholars, policy-makers, and activists for generations. In 1914 Twitchell published in two volumes "The Spanish Archives of New Mexico," the first calendar and guide to the documents from the Spanish colonial period. Volume One of the two volumes focuses on the collection known as the "Spanish Archives of New Mexico, Series I," or SANM I, an appellation granted because of Twitchell's original compilation and description of the 1,384 documents identified in the first volume of his series. The Spanish Archives of New Mexico was assembled by the Surveyor General of New Mexico (1854-1891) and the Court of Private Land Claims (1891-1904). The collection consists of civil land records of the Spanish period governments of New Mexico and materials created by the Surveyor General and Court of Private Land Claims during the process of adjudication. It includes the original Spanish colonial petitions for land grants, land conveyances, wills, mine registers, records books, journals, dockets, reports, minutes, letters, and a variety of other legal documents. Each of these documents tell a story, sometimes many stories. The bulk of the records accentuate the amazingly dynamic nature of land grant and settlement policies. While the documents reveal the broad sweep of community settlement and its reverse effect, hundreds of last wills and testaments are included in these records, that are scripted in the most eloquent and spiritual tone at the passing of individuals into death. These testaments also reveal a legacy of what colonists owned and bequeathed to the next generations. Most of the documents are about the geographic, political and cultural mapping of New Mexico, but many reflect the stories of that which is owned both in terms of commodities and human lives. Archives inevitably, and these archives more than most, help to shape current debates about dispossession, the colonial past, and the postcolonial future of New Mexico. For this reason, the task of understanding the role of archives, archival documents, and the kinds of stories that emanate from them has never been more urgent. Let this effort and the key provided by Twitchell in his two volumes open the doors wide for knowledge to be useful today and tomorrow.--From the Foreword by Estevan Rael-Galvez, New Mexico State Historian"

Book Description
Easily one of the most recognizable dogs in the world, Chihuahuas are easy to identify. If you ask someone what they think of Chihuahuas, you are almost certain to get a strong reaction either in favor of them or against them. They can be an incredibly polarizing breed. One thing that most people agree on about Chihuahuas is that they don’t appear to understand just how small they are. Most Chihuahuas don’t exhibit much (or any fear), going up and barking at a Great Dane or Mastiff. It’s impossible not to shake your head at their antics. This guide will walk you through the in's and out's of owning this phenomenal breed. Whether you're someone playing with the idea of getting a Chihuahua, or have already embarked on your journey with your pup, this guide will offer an insight into how to create a happy and fulfilling life for you and your Chi. This book will answer all your questions such as: Is a Chihuahua the right dog for me? I brought my Chihuahua home. What now? How can I best train my Chihuahua? What are some common mistakes should I avoid? They can be difficult to train, and their personalities tend to match their parents’ personalities. But with early socialization, they can make fantastic additions to any family. Topics covered in the book include: Mischievous Charmers – the Defining Characteristics Breed History and Characteristics The Ideal Home Finding Your Chihuahua Preparing for Your Puppy The First Week The First Month Housetraining Socialization and Experience Being a Puppy Parent Living with other dogs Training You Chihuahua Puppy Basic Commands Nutrition Grooming – Productive Bonding Basic Health Care Health Concerns Your Aging Chihuahua Given their small size, Chihuahuas are a surprisingly entertaining dog – largely because they don’t realize just how small they are. They tend to be wary of strangers, but when it comes to their family, they are one of the most loyal breeds. They love their families and want to protect them just as much as any large breed. Chihuahuas are not for everyone, but if you bring one into your home, you will have a dog that will love you unconditionally.

Book Description
Elizabeth Jones, a newly hired Spanish teacher at North Gate High School, finds herself standing in the middle of a cinder block warehouse at her new campus. Formerly an Industrial Arts room with old equipment stored against the walls and rusty nuts and bolts scattered across the floor, Elizabeth is horrified at the thought of this being her new classroom. She is even more horrified to learn that she will be sharing this space with Theater Arts classes and a clinic without a ceiling. Encountering falling flats, puking students, Theater production rehearsals, and without the basic classroom set up like a board and desks, Elizabeth finds herself ready to scream and run! Principal John James, with his dry humor and sarcastic personality, insists that this is the only option he has for a room. Jean Smith, her witty and entertaining department chair, convinces Elizabeth that they can find a solution to this overwhelming challenge. With the help of their rowdy colleagues and lots of laughter, Jean and Elizabeth are determined to find a solution for this instructional nightmare. Faced with the decision to quit or step up, Elizabeth decides to embrace this challenge by throwing away the textbook and traditional methods and creating a new interactive approach to teaching. From her cinder block classroom to a cinder block school atop a mountain in Mexico, she retraces her steps on one part of her educational journey that will dramatically transform her teaching style and change her life forever. Join Elizabeth and her sidekick Jean on a roll a coaster ride, as they rock the boat, challenge their administrators, and become the Chihuahua Bats.

Book Description
Just a trolley ride from El Paso, Ciudad Juárez was a popular destination in the early 1900s. Enticing and exciting, tourists descended on this and other Mexican border towns to browse curio shops, dine and dance, attend bullfights, and perhaps escape Prohibition America. In Postcards from the Chihuahua Border Daniel D. Arreola captures the exhilaration of places in time, taking us back to Mexico’s northern border towns of Cuidad Juárez, Ojinaga, and Palomas in the early twentieth century. Drawing on more than three decades of archival work, Arreola uses postcards and maps to unveil the history of these towns along west Texas’s and New Mexico’s southern borders. Postcards offer a special kind of visual evidence. Arreola’s collection of imagery and commentary about them shows us singular places, enriching our understandings of history and the history of change in Chihuahua. No one postcard tells the entire story. But image after image offers a collected view and insight into changing perceptions. Arreola’s geography of place looks both inward and outward. We see what tourists see, while at the same time gaining insight about what postcard photographers and postcard publishers wanted to be seen and perceived about these border communities. Postcards from the Chihuahua Border is a colorful and dynamic visual history. It invites the reader to time travel, to revisit another era—the first half of the last century—when these border towns were framed and made popular through picture postcards.
