The Land of the Pueblos

August 23, 1888 issue

This article critically appraises the book "The Land of the Pueblos," by Susan E. Wallace. This little book is a reprint of a series of papers published several years ago in different periodicals. While the book has many bright sides, it is lamentably adrift in all that touches upon the history and ethnology of New Mexico. As far as actual life in New Mexico is concerned, the author cannot be too much praised for her admirable pictures of it. But the past seems to her a sealed book, in regard to which she is content to repeat, though in a beautiful way, statements and appreciations which at their time were just and seemed true.
