Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating and often contentious history of land grants in New Mexico, examining how these vast tracts of land, originally bestowed by the Spanish Crown and Mexican government, were acquired, contested, and ultimately shaped the lives of native communities. The author meticulously recounts the legal battles, political machinations, and economic forces that influenced the fate of these grants, highlighting the complex interplay between Spanish and American legal systems, Native American land tenure, and the rise of Anglo-American business interests. The book examines in detail four specific land grants - the Canyon de San Diego, the JaconÃÂ , the Cundiyo, and the La Joya - providing a microcosmic view of the larger historical process. Through these case studies, the author unveils the consequences of shifting ownership patterns, the impact of taxation on indigenous communities, and the struggle for control over valuable resources like timber and grazing land. The book ultimately reveals the enduring impact of historical land policies on the social and economic fabric of New Mexico, offering a poignant illustration of the complex and often overlooked struggles of Native American communities in the face of changing political and economic landscapes.
