From the Pass to the Pueblos
Author: George D. Torok
Publisher: Sunstone Press
ISBN: 1611394295
Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 391
Book Description
El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro, the Royal Road of the Interior, was a 1,600-mile braid of trails that led from Mexico City, in the center of New Spain, to the provincial capital of New Mexico on the edge of the empire’s northern frontier. The Royal Road served as a lifeline for the colonial system from its founding in 1598 until the last days of Spanish rule in the 1810s. Throughout the Mexican and American Territorial periods, the Camino Real expanded, becoming part of a larger continental and international transportation system and, until the trail was replaced by railroads in the late nineteenth century, functioned as the main pathway for conquest, migration, settlement, commerce, and culture in today’s American Southwest. More than 400 miles of the original trail lie within the United States today, and stretch from present-day San Elizario, Texas to Santa Fe, New Mexico. This segment comprises El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro National Historic Trail. It was added to the United States National Trail System in 2000 and is still in use today. This book guides the reader along the trail with histories and overviews of places in New Mexico, West Texas and the Ciudad Juárez area. It includes a broad overview of the trail’s history from 1598 until the arrival of the railroads in the 1880s, and describes the communities, landscape, archaeology, architecture, and public interpretation of this historic transportation corridor.

The Heart of Las Cruces
Author: Ricardo Bauzá
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780692243336
Category : Las Cruces (N.M.)
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
In ten essays, ranging from the chronological to the sacred, and with stories from national and regional import to familial and personal recollections, this work examines the historical evolution of this faith community, which has played a crucial role in the spiritual development of Las Cruces, New Mexico, and continued to do so today. For over a century St. Genevieve Catholic Church served as the actual physical heart of Las Cruces, most recognizable feature that marked the community's downtown. But over the same time period, St. Genevieve became much more than just a geographic identifier; it became the spiritual focus for generations of the faithful. This book details the complex and intriguing story of the establishment, growth, and expansion of the church. The loss of the "old" church building during the physical and social transformations of the parish during the 1960s, although traumatic to many, led to a recommitment to the sacrifice and service centered on the "new" church building.
