Trade Paperback. Condition: Fine. Motano, Richard - Cover Art (illustrator). First Ediiton. 265 Pages Indexed. Very slight wear to the covers of an otherwise As New book with flawless interior text pages. History is not the sole province of captains and kings. It is also the proper dominion of ordinary people. It is the story of their heroic acts as well as their more mundane occupations, from digging irrigation canals to herding sheep. During the first half of its existence, New Mexico was a raucous colony just living on the fringe of sensibility. In 1641, the niece of Antonio Baca became involved in an affair with Governor Luis de Rosas. Her infidelity resulted in the beheading of eight individuals, four of whom were members of her family, including her uncle Antonio, who sought to avenge her defilement. Relive the first three and a half centuries of New Mexico's incredible history as experienced by twelve generations of two of its first families. Dr. Lucero captures the untold stories of individuals who have sought to establish new homelands. Twenty-two years before the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock, Spain established a colony in the high country of New Mexico. The lives of these people are an important part of our history. Dr. Lucero has put flesh on the bones of his ancestors, from farmers to politicians, business women, to land owners. The saga of the Bacas and Luceros of New Mexico starts with the progenitors, Cristobal Baca and Pedro Lucero de Godoy when they first arrived in New Mexico in the early l600s. The reader then follows these two families through the first three and a half centuries surviving in a harsh environment, fighting foreign elements and establishing the first towns, churches and schools in what is now the United States of America. Within the tales of the Baca and Lucero families are also the families they intermarried with such as the Sena, Santisteban, Martin de Serrano (Martinez), Garcia, Gomez Robledo, Carvajal, Montoya, Montafio, Trujillo, Varela, Salazar, Rael, Romero, Valdes, Velasquez, Luna, Rodriguez, Esquibel, Zamora and Perez families and more.
