Blue cloth with gold embossed lettering to spine and front. No marks or stamps. Dust jacket shows very minor wear to edges. No tears or anything missing. El Senor Vicario of Santa Fe, Don Juan Felipe Ortiz, was so obese that he could not escape a welter of first impressions of this score. Several Anglo-Americans of his day remarked on his girth in their letters and journals. He also had a very fair complexion as some of them noted, apparently amazed by such a quality in a so-called Mexican. He was a redhead as well, as these attributes of fatness, fair skin, and red hair were likewise observed in a first cousin of his who was also a priest, Padre Rafael Ortiz. These family traits had to have an origin, and some of these are found in the ancestral Ortiz family that had come to New Mexico from Mexico City in 1694. When the first draft of this biography was ending with the death of Vicar Ortiz, two word associations were brought to mind. The first was from Oliver Goldsmith's poem, The Vicar of Wakefield and the second from Ortiz himself, who stood out among his contemporaries as a congenitally fat man in his later years. No irreverence is intended in this title, as the obesity was regarded with affection among those who knew him. Of far more relevance, it was a quality for which the first bishop of Santa Fe, the famed Jean Baptiste Lamy, debased him as a lazy fellow, which he never was, thus setting the stage for his miserable last years and sad demise. Juan Felipe Ortiz lived during a crucial and turbulent time in Southwestern history. He spent his youth to adulthood as a Spanish subject in distant New Mexico. Most of his service as a Mexican-educated secular priest occurred during the brief interlude in New Mexico's long history known as the Mexican Period from 1821 until late 1846. Contents in 16 Chapters: The Ricos of Santa Fe, Pastor of Santa Fe and Vicar, a Bishop and His Vicar, The Burdens of Office, Deputy in Congress, Digression to Another Relative, Troublesome Times, A New Dispensation, A Funeral and Controversey, A Problem of Bias, Hatred and the Assumption of Episcopal Authority, Whose Parroquia? The Diocese of Santa Fe, Return from Durango, Oh What a Tangled Web, and Elegy for a Fat Vicar Death of a Mexican Church. Plus Foreword, Introduction and Bibliography. Illustrated with 18 Photographs and Drawings.

Summary; This enormous project is based on the premise that civilizations are the product of their environment. With that, Fernandez-Arnesto looks at cultures of the desert, the tundra and ice, then to the more obvious civilizations of alluvial flood plains, the highlands, maritime civilizations and finally civilizations of travel, migration and expansion. This is a work of massive cross referencing juxtaposing the maritime civilizations of Japan and Northern Africa or the mountain civilizations of New Guinea and Tibet. The effect is to suggest that civilization can happen anywhere - that no one environment is uniquely conducive, or that no one race or people are more productive than another.
