“Each time I come out of the canyon lands to the north I
feel a renewal of life. . . . I feel a renewal from seeing the
rocks, vegetation, animals, seepages and red oxide, suta
paintings—pictographs, the reminiscences of people
passing through before me—and I imagine their former
selves in the shadows and sounds surrounding me. . . . I feel
renewed from meditating on all this as I leave my foot-prints
while returning to my journey’s beginning.”

NATIVE AMERICAN / PHOTOGRAPHY / ART
Dramatic images by a Native American artist
Husk of Time
The Photographs of Victor Masayesva
VICTOR MASAYESVA, JR.
Introduction by BEVERLY R. SINGER
Photographer and filmmaker Victor Masayesva, Jr., was raised in the Hopi
village of Hotevilla and was educated at the Horace Mann School in New York,
Princeton University, and the University of Arizona. His immersion in photo-graphic
experimentation embraces a projection of stories and symbols, natural
objects, and locations both at Hopi and worldwide. His work has been exhibited
internationally, and he is perhaps best known for his feature-length film
Imagining Indians.
For Masayesva, photography is a discipline that he approaches in a manner
similar to the way that he was taught about himself and his clan identity. As he
navigates his personal associations with Hopi subject matter in varied investiga-tions
of biology, ecology, humanity, history, planetary energy, places remem-bered,
and musings on things broken and whole, he has created an extraordinary
visual cosmography. In this compilation of his photographic journey, Masayesva
presents some of the most important and vibrant images of that visual quest and
reflects on them in provocative essays.
Author and photographer VICTOR MASAYESVA, JR. is widely recognized as an indepen-dent
Hopi film producer and director who is at the forefront of experimental work in the
Native American film and video community. He was co-editor (with Erin Younger) of Hopi
Photographers/Hopi Images (University of Arizona Press, 1983), has been the recipient of
numerous awards, and has served as guest artist-in-residence at major art centers.
Masayesva currently works to nurture young, talented film and video makers and to help
unify independent Native media artists to further their access to production resources.
Introduction author BEVERLY R. SINGER is from Santa Clara Pueblo, having Tewa and
Diné ancestry. She is an associate professor of anthropology and Native American
studies at the University of New Mexico and is a producer of independent documentary
programs that highlight current native perspectives. She is author of Wiping the War
Paint Off the Lens: Native American Film and Video.

“Victor Masayesva, Jr., has created a
rich body of video and photographic
work that represents the culture and
traditions of Native Americans—
particularly the Hopi of Arizona—
through poetic visualizations.
Masayesva employs computer
animation and graphics in lyrical
translations of Hopi myths, rituals, and
history. Articulating the richness of his
heritage in his own language, he
allows the Hopi voice to be heard.”
—Electronic Arts Intermix
“Masayesva is one of the most original
artists working today in the Southwest.
His visually and intellectually complex
layering of video and audio effects, still
photographs and hand-painting
contrasts aspects of Native American
cultures with the crippling perceptions
and influences of white culture.”

SPACE SCIENCE / HISTORY
Behind the scenes during a turbulent time at NASA
The Last of the Great Observatories
Spitzer and the Era of
Faster, Better, Cheaper at NASA
GEORGE H. RIEKE
The Spitzer Space Observatory, originally known as the Space Infrared Tele-scope
Facility (SIRTF), is the last of the four “Great Observatories”, which also
include the Hubble Space Telescope, the Chandra X-ray Observatory, and the
Compton Gamma Ray Observatory. Developed over twenty years and dubbed
the “Infrared Hubble", Spitzer was launched in the summer of 2003 and has
since contributed significantly to our understanding of the universe.
George Rieke played a key role in Spitzer and now relates the story of how that
observatory was built and launched into space. Telling the story of this single
mission within the context of NASA space science over two turbulent decades,
he describes how, after a tortuous political trail to approval, Spitzer was started
at the peak of NASA’s experiment with streamlining and downsizing its mission
development process, termed “faster, better, cheaper.” Up to its official start and
even afterward, Spitzer was significant not merely in terms of its scientific
value but because it stood at the center of major changes in space science policy
and politics.
Through interviews with many of the project participants, Rieke reconstructs
the political and managerial process by which space missions are conceived,
approved, and developed. He reveals that by the time Spitzer had been complet-ed,
a number of mission failures had undermined faith in “faster, better, cheap-er”
and a more conservative approach was imposed. Rieke examines in detail
the premises behind “faster, better, cheaper,” their strengths and weaknesses, and
their ultimate impact within the context of NASA’s continuing search for the
best way to build future missions.
Rieke’s participant’s perspective takes readers inside Congress and NASA to
trace the progress of missions prior to the excitement of the launch, revealing
the enormously complex and often disheartening political process that needs to
be negotiated. He also shares some of the new observations and discoveries
made by Spitzer in just its first year of operation. As the only book devoted to the
Spitzer mission, The Last of the Great Observatories is a story at the nexus of
politics and science, shedding new light on both spheres as it contemplates the
future of mankind’s exploration of the universe.
GEORGE H. RIEKE is Regents’ Professor of astronomy and planetary science at the
University of Arizona and author of The Detection of Light.

Celebrating 100 years of a premiere conservation law
The Antiquities Act
A Century of American Archaeology,
Historic Preservation, and
Nature Conservation
Edited by DAVID HARMON, FRANCIS P. MCMANAMON,
and DWIGHT T. PITCAITHLEY
Enacted in 1906, the Antiquities Act is one of the most important pieces of
conservation legislation in American history and has had a far-reaching
influence on the preservation of our nation’s cultural and natural heritage.
Thanks to the foresight of thirteen presidents, parks as diverse as Acadia, Grand
Canyon, and Olympic National Park, along with historic and archaeological sites
such as Thomas Edison’s Laboratory and the Gila Cliff Dwellings, have been
preserved for posterity.
A century after its passage, this book presents a definitive assessment of the
Antiquities Act and its legacy, addressing the importance and breadth of the
act—as well as the controversy it has engendered. Authored by professionals
intimately involved with safeguarding the nation’s archaeological, historic, and
natural heritage, it describes the applications of the act and assesses its place in
our country’s future.
With a scope as far-reaching as the resources the act embraces, this book
offers an unparalleled opportunity for today’s stewards to reflect on the act’s
historic accomplishments, to remind fellow professionals and the general public
of its continuing importance, and to look ahead to its continuing implementation
in the twenty-first century. The Antiquities Act invites all who love America’s
natural and cultural treasures not only to learn about the act’s rich legacy but
also to envision its next hundred years.
DAVID HARMON is executive director of the George Wright Society. Headquartered in
Hancock, Michigan, it works to protect cultural and natural parks and reserves. He is the
author of In Light of Our Differences: How Diversity in Nature and Culture Makes Us
Human. FRANCIS P. McMANAMON is chief archaeologist of the National Park Service
and co-editor of the volume Cultural Resource Management in Contemporary Society:
Perspectives on Managing and Presenting the Past. He lives in Washington, DC. DWIGHT
T. PITCAITHLEY is former chief historian of the National Park Service and currently
teaches at New Mexico State University.

“The history of American archaeology,
conservation, and historic preservation
is often told in terms of legal
milestones, and rightly so. An
environmental activist working to
expand a nearby park, a historic
preservationist trying to save a
cherished old building, a volunteer
working on a national wilderness
campaign, an archaeologist
investigating an ancient village site in
advance of reservoir construction—all
are working from a solid foundation of
statutory authorities that, law by law,
have expanded protections for
archaeological resources, historic
structures, and natural areas. There
are many laws that mark critical
junctures in our national conservation
policy, yet what is arguably one of the
most important of them all remains
little known outside of specialist
circles. That law is the Antiquities Act
of 1906.”—from the Introduction

NATURE / PHOTOGRAPHY
Explore the stark beauty of The Devil's Highway
Sunshot
Peril and Wonder in the Gran Desierto
Text by BILL BROYLES
Photographs by MICHAEL P. BERMAN
The Devil’s Highway crosses a stretch of borderland desert in northern Mexico
where many immigrants have traveled—and too many have died. It is a
despoblado where desperate people defend secret places. But it is also known as
El Gran Desierto—a place where stately saguaros stand near aromatic elephant
trees, where sand dunes caress the edges of jagged granite mountains, where one
can watch bighorn sheep in the morning and whales in the afternoon.
Over the years, desert rat Bill Broyles has ventured repeatedly into this
sunshot landscape, slogged across its salt flats and sand dunes, and defied its
deadly heat. This book chronicles his years of exploration, a vivid and personal
introduction to a thorny but ultimately enchanting place that manages to endear
itself over time, if it doesn’t kill you first.
Michael Berman’s stark black-and-white photographs capture the desolate
beauty of the desert while conveying a sense of Broyles’ adventures. Gleaned
from more than 4,000 images shot with a large-format camera, these exquisite
photographs translate the desert’s formidable monotone into finely tuned studies
of light and represent some of the best photos ever taken of this mysterious
region.
El Gran Desierto is a grand desert indeed, with beauty, spirit, and mystery
rivaling any place on Earth, and anyone captivated by the earlier explorations of
Lumholtz, Ives, or Hornaday—or by Edward Abbey’s love of desert places—will
revel in these modern-day adventures. Sunshot defies the stereotype of a
punishing wilderness to show how even the most perilous desert can be alluring
if approached with knowledge and respect.
BILL BROYLES is the author of Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument: Where Edges
Meet and Our Sonoran Desert, and co-editor of Dry Borders: Great Natural Reserves of
the Sonoran Desert. A research associate with the University of Arizona’s Southwest
Center, he is also working to create a Sonoran Desert peace park on the Arizona-Sonora
border. MICHAEL P. BERMAN’s photography has been exhibited at museums and
galleries across the West, including the Etherton Gallery in Tucson, Scheinbaum &
Russek in Santa Fe, the Houston Center for Photography, and the Museum of Fine Arts in
Santa Fe.

“Bill Broyles knows this ground as well
as any man is likely to ever know it.
Michael Berman has brought a fresh

sun. Forget the calendar art—forget art
for that matter. This book will take you
to a special place, one sacred and
profane, a place where we finally get
to face ourselves because we are
alone with life itself. And when that
happens, the desert offers a state of
grace.”—Charles Bowden

Grand Canyon
Little Things in a Big Place
Text by ANN ZWINGER
Photographs by MICHAEL COLLIER
Most people would not think of it as a desert, but the Grand Canyon of the
Colorado is most assuredly that. With its towering walls barely lapped by the
river, the canyon at its floor is a desert place unto itself.
Ann Zwinger, a master of exposing the heart of the wild world, plumbs the
very soul of this majestic place, exploring the deserts along the Colorado’s banks
in order to examine things that often go unnoticed against a backdrop of
overwhelming grandeur. Whether drawing our attention to a newly unfurled
evening primrose, a ladybug at work on a leaf full of aphids, or the amazing
appearance of a humpback chub slipping through the water like a pewter ghost,
she opens a new window on the Canyon at river level to show us that small
things of overpowering beauty can be found in a place whose intrinsic splendor
is nothing less than staggering.
Michael Collier’s photographs also offer readers a view of the Canyon that
may surprise anyone accustomed to more panoramic perspectives. Here are
dramatic and mysterious images of not only rocks and rapids but also the
intimate manifestations of nature that Zwinger describes. And for those who
have never rafted the Colorado, Collier’s dramatic photographs are the next best
thing.
Grand Canyon: Little Things in a Big Place is a book that will appeal equally to
first-time Canyon visitors and long-time Zwinger and Collier fans—a book to
return to time and again to contemplate the beauty of this timeless place.
ANN ZWINGER is the author of more than twenty books, including the John Burroughs
Award–winning Run, River, Run; Downcanyon, winner of the Western States Book
Award for Creative Nonfiction; and most recently The Nearsighted Naturalist, all
available from the University of Arizona Press. Science writer and photographer

A tale of two homes thousands of miles apart
Because I Don’t Have Wings
Stories of Mexican Immigrant Life
PHILIP GARRISON
For Mexican workers, the agricultural valleys of the inland Northwest are a long
way from home. But there they have established communities, settlements
recent enough that it feels like these newly arrived immigrant mexicanos are
pioneers, still getting used to the Anglos and to each other.
This book looks at the inner lives of Mexican immigrants in a northwestern
U.S. boomtown, a loose collection of families from Michoacán and surrounding
states living a mere 150 miles from Canada. They are more isolated than most
mexicano communities closer to home, and they endure severe winters that
make life more difficult still. Neighborhoods form, dissolve, and re-form. Family
members who leave may stay in touch, but friends very often simply vanish,
leaving only their nicknames behind. Without a market or a plaza, residents
meet at weddings, christenings, and funerals—or at the food bank.
Philip Garrison has spent most of his life in this region and shares in vivid
prose tales of immigrant life, both contemporary and historical, revealing the
dual lives of first-generation Mexican immigrants who move smoothly between
the Yakima Valley and their homes in Mexico. And with a scholar’s eye he
examines figures of speech that reflect mexicano feelings about immigrant life,
offering glimpses of adaptation through offhand remarks, family spats, and town
gossip.
Written with irony but bursting with compassion, Because I Don’t Have Wings
features vivid characters, telling anecdotes, and poignant reflections on life,
unfolding an immigrant’s world strikingly different from the one we usually
read about. Adaptation, persistence, and survival, we learn, are traits that
mexicano culture values. We also learn that, over time, mexicano immigrants
don’t merely adapt to the culture of el norte, they transform it.
PHILIP GARRISON is the author of Augury and Waiting for the Earth to Turn Over. He is
one of the founders of APOYO, a volunteer group that offers advocacy, interpretation
services, and a food and clothing bank that now serves some 400 people a month from
central Washington’s mexicano communities. He is a recipient of the Associated Writing
Programs Creative Nonfiction Award and a Governor’s Writer's Award from Washington
State. He is an emeritus professor of English at Central Washington University and lives
in Ellensburg.

Because I Don’t Have Wings leads both

Shattering the American Dream
Samba Dreamers
KATHLEEN de AZEVEDO
Rosea spoke, her voice steady. “I was in jail a long time, you know. I’m paying for my
sins. Now I live in a dingy apartment. I get to watch my neighbors’ kids play and
have a normal life that I’ll never have. I smell their barbecues. I’m already in hell,
believe me.”
Joe turned to go back to the car. “You don’t know what hell is. You have no idea.”
When José Francisco Verguerio Silva arrives at LAX, fleeing the brutal dictator-ship
in his native Brazil, he is determined to become Americanized at all costs.
He lands a job driving a Hollywood tour bus and posing as Ricky Ricardo. He
marries a blonde waitress and becomes the father of twins. Yet happiness
remains elusive for Joe as he is haunted by flashbacks of prison torture. And
soon a torrid affair with Rosea Socorro Katz, the crazed daughter of Hollywood’s
Brazilian star Carmen Socorro, proves to be even more dangerous than the life he
has fled.
Rosea spent her childhood watching her mother unravel as the celebrity
system toyed with and eventually destroyed her career. Carmen had always
claimed to be descended from Amazons, the woman warriors of legend, but she
was tamed by Hollywood. Not Rosea. She has just finished serving jail time for
setting fire to the home of her ex-husband—in an attempt to destroy his collec-tion
of Brazilian artifacts—and sets out to salvage her life. Along the way, she
manages to tear down the lives of everyone she meets.
The Brazil of the imagination is shattered in this novel of two tortured souls
wrestling with the myths of movies, politics, and the American Dream. Laced
with fantastic tales of bird-boys and cannibal rituals, it spins a compelling story
of desperation as it reminds us that American freedom and the myth of
unbridled opportunity can also consume and destroy.
KATHLEEN de AZEVEDO was born in Rio de Janeiro but has lived much of her life in the
United States. Her writing has appeared in such publications as the Los Angeles Times,
Michigan Quarterly Review, Boston Review, Hayden’s Ferry Review, Greensboro Review,
and Américas, and she has been a frequent contributor to Brazzil magazine. She
currently lives in San Francisco and teaches at Skyline College.

Behind closed doors in a border town
Brides and Sinners in El Chuco
Stories by CHRISTINE GRANADOS
Brides have their dreams, sinners their secrets, but sometimes it’s not so easy to
tell them apart.
In the border town of El Paso—better known to its Mexican American resi-dents
as El Chuco—dramas unfold in humdrum households every day as work-ing-
class men come home from their jobs and as their wives and children do
their best to cope with life. Christine Granados now plumbs the heart of this
community in fourteen startling stories, uncovering the dreams and secrets in
which ordinary people sometimes lose themselves.
Many fictional accounts of barrio life play up tradition and nostalgia; Brides
and Sinners in El Chuco is a trip to the darker side. Here are memories of
growing up in a place where innocence is always tempered by reality—true-to-life
stories, told in authentic language, of young women, from preteens to twenty-somethings,
learning to negotiate their way through troubled times and troubled
families. In the award-winning story “The Bride,” a young girl recalls her sister
as a perennial bride on Halloween, planning for her eventual big day in a pink
notebook with lists of potential husbands, only to see her dream thwarted at the
junior prom. In another, we meet Bobbi, the class slut, whose D-cup chest
astounds the other girls and entices everyone—even those who shouldn’t be
tempted.
Granados’ tales boldly portray women’s struggle for solidarity in the face of
male abuse, and as these characters come to grips with self-discovery, sibling
rivalry, and dysfunctional relationships, she shows what it means for Chicanas
to grow up in protective families while learning to survive in the steamy border
environment. Brides and Sinners in El Chuco is an uncompromising look at life
with all its hard edges—told with enough softness to make readers come back
for more.
CHRISTINE GRANADOS was born and raised in El Paso, Texas. She is a stay-at-home
mother of two sons and works as a freelance journalist. She graduated from the School
of Communications, University of Texas, El Paso, and she has an MFA in creative
writing from Texas State University, San Marcos.

“Christine Granados’ stories are sharp,
evocative portraits of El Paso which
deserve a wide readership. Her fiction
does not flinch from hard truths or
taboos. And her spare prose cuts to
what is essential, what is hilarious,
and what makes us who we are. A
wonderful debut.” —Sergio Troncoso
“Defying what is expected of a
Chicana writer, Granados is helping to
re-orient Latino literature away from
poignant, romanticized goody-goodyism,
toward stark, complex
storytelling that will remind the many
of us who have grown up imperfectly
what it is to be living on the embattled
fronteras of Mexican and American.”

A poetic expedition to the lands of the heart
POETRY / LATINA LITERATURE
How Long She’ll Last in This World
MARÍA MELÉNDEZ
Let go your keys, let go your gun,
let go your good pen and your rings,
let your wolf mask go
and kiss goodbye
your goddess figurine.
With this invocation, María Meléndez beckons us on a journey—an exotic
expedition through life’s mysteries in search of the finer strands of experience.
In a Latina voice laced with a naturalist’s sense of wonder, she weaves bold
images reflecting a world threaded by unseen wounds, now laid before us with
an unflinching love of life and an exquisite precision of language.
Adopting multiple guises—field researcher, laboring mother, grief-stricken
lover—Meléndez casts aside stereotypes and expectations to forge a new
language steeped in life and landscape. Whether meditating on a controlled
prairie burn or contemplating the turquoise cheek of a fathead minnow, she
weaves words and memories into a rich tapestry that resonates with sensual
detail and magnifies her sense of maternal wildness, urging us to “Love as much
as you / can, don’t throw your heart / away to just one god.”
In her paean to the Aztec deity Tonacacihuatl, mother of the gods, Meléndez
muses that “How many spirits she’s twin to, and how long she’ll last in this world,
/ are secrets stashed in the rattle / of corn ears, in the coils / of venomous
snakes.” Through stunning images and stark realism, her poems embrace
motherhood and vocation, love and grief, land and life, to bring new meaning to
the natural world and how we experience it.
MARÍA MELÉNDEZ has canvassed for political organizations and worked as a wildlife
biology field assistant. In 2000 she was awarded an Artists-in-Communities grant from the
California Arts Council to support her work as writer-in-residence at the UC Davis
Arboretum, where she taught environmental poetry workshops for the public. She has
authored one chapbook of poetry, Base Pairs, and edited two anthologies, Nest of
Freedom and Moon Won’t Leave Me Alone, and is currently assistant professor of English
at Saint Mary’s College in Notre Dame, Indiana.

“Meléndez narrates a poetic body that

—Rita Maria Magdaleno
“Intrepid—Marfa Meléndez’s art is as
intrepid and her voice as upbeat as one
can find in today’s poetry. Her poems
read like double exposures—politics
and pastures, spirit world and
irreverence, erotic protest as well as
‘nutrient love.’ How Long She’ll Last in
This World is a world created from the
open eyes and ears of a marvelously
original poet.”—Sandra McPherson

Tucson Cooks!
THE PRIMAVERA FOUNDATION
One of America’s top tourist destinations, Tucson also boasts an amazing array of
restaurants. Tucson Cooks! highlights the city’s gourmet excellence with detailed
descriptions, tantalizing menus, and mouth-watering recipes from some of the
city’s finest eateries.
For four years, Tucson has hosted a series of summer dining events known as
Primavera Cooks!, a partnership between two local non-profit organizations, the
Primavera Foundation and the Tucson Originals. For these gourmet events some
of Tucson’s finest restaurants opened their kitchens and their wine cellars to
host apprentice “hobby” chefs. These apprentices paid for the opportunity to
work in gourmet restaurant kitchens with well-known chefs responsible for
some of the finest local cuisine. The chefs and apprentices planned, prepared
and served a multi-course wine-paired dinner for approximately 50 friends and
supporters of these two well-respected, local, non-profit organizations. Tucson
Cooks! features the delicious results of those evenings.
Food-lovers everywhere will welcome the chance to visit the kitchens of such
nationally-recognized venues as Janos, Terra Cotta, and The Grill at Hacienda
del Sol as well as local favorites including Pastiche, Feast, and Elle. In Tucson
Cooks! you will find stories, recipes and photographs about the dozen restaurants
that collaborated on Primavera Cooks! With nearly 100 delectable recipes, from
Roasted Duck with Fresh Blackberries to Macaroni and Cheese, the book has
something for everyone.
The book also includes recipes from many other Tucson Originals, including
El Charro, Miguel’s, and Wildflower. Try a Chipotle Molasses Glazed Chicken
from Acacia or Charred Ahi Tuna with Asian Slaw from The Gold Room at

Tucson Cooks! offers a guided culinary expedition through hot stoves, sharp
knives, and gourmet recipes for hobby chefs and discerning diners everywhere.
THE PRIMAVERA FOUNDATION was founded in 1982. It addresses the systematic causes
of homelessness and near homelessness with job training, employment, housing, home
ownership and advocacy. TUCSON ORIGINALS is an alliance of more than thirty locally-owned,
independent restaurants in Tucson. Founded in 1998, they strive to preserve the
unique flavors of Tucson while giving back to the community through their philanthropic
efforts.

A look at the species of a southwestern canyon
ECOLOGY / ENVIRONMENT
Amphibians, Reptiles, and Their
Habitats at Sabino Canyon
DAVID W. LAZAROFF, PHILIP C. ROSEN, and CHARLES H. LOWE, JR.
Even in paradise, one needs to be mindful of what’s underfoot.
The Sabino Canyon Recreation Area is a desert oasis in the Santa Catalina
Mountains north of Tucson, a rich repository of wildlife and a favorite destina-tion
for Tucsonans and visitors for more than a century. This book presents
annotated and illustrated descriptions of the amphibians and reptiles found at
Sabino Canyon and an overview of their natural environment.
In this first publication to describe Sabino Canyon’s biota in scientific detail,
three expert authors pool their knowledge to provide a detailed discussion of
ecological change—especially as a consequence of drought, flooding, the
introduction of exotic species, and direct human impact. Suburbia has arrived
on the canyon’s doorstep, and human visitation has soared, inalterably affecting
the area. Of particular concern, breeding habitats for amphibians were pro-foundly
altered by flash flooding in Sabino’s streams following the 2003 Aspen
Fire, which ravaged large parts of the Santa Catalina Mountains.
The book contains richly detailed accounts of the 57 species found at Sabino—
25 snakes, 17 lizards, 8 toads and frogs, 6 turtles, and 1 salamander—emphasizing
their local ecology and the behavior likely to be witnessed by visitors. Physical
descriptions and numerous photographs—many in color—facilitate identifica-tion.
Up-to-date distribution maps provide an essential baseline against which
future researchers can measure change.
Amphibians, Reptiles, and Their Habitats at Sabino Canyon is essential for
anyone who seeks to understand this desert oasis, how it has changed, and how it
may change in the future. Written with minimal technical jargon to make it as
useful to students and visitors as it will be to scientists and resource managers,
it makes a vital contribution to our understanding of creatures underfoot whose
habitat we seek to share.
DAVID W. LAZAROFF is the author of Sabino Canyon: The Life of a Southwestern Oasis
and four other books. He lives in Tucson. PHILIP C. ROSEN is a research scientist for the
School of Renewable Natural Resources at the University of Arizona. The late CHARLES
H. LOWE, JR. was a noted herpetologist who authored many scientific works, including
The Vertebrates of Arizona.

Learning to coexist with nature
Playing with Fish
and Other Lessons from the North
ROBERT J. WOLFE
According to the Yup’ik Eskimo of Alaska, fish are not to be played with. It’s an
adage instilled in children that’s as basic as looking both ways before crossing
the street, but at its heart lies a concern for nature. Yup’ik traditions are tested
each generation by this people’s struggle for survival, the admonition not to play
with fish has been further tested by the arrival of sport fishing from the south.
Worlds are colliding—whose will emerge unscathed?
Robert J. Wolfe, a cultural anthropologist from California, spent twenty years
in Alaska documenting the traditional hunting and fishing practices of Alaska
Natives. During that northern sojourn he discovered much about sustainable
relationships between people and nature and about the basis of meaningful
communities. In Playing with Fish he has crafted a series of thought-provoking
essays on nature, culture, and the human condition that convey unsuspected
lessons from the North.
In contrasting California and Alaska—worlds far apart yet connected by
peoples, cultural traditions, and ecology—Wolfe not only draws distinctions
between compass points, he also conveys memorable stories about nature and
life. He depicts bears and humans as both neighbors and ancient adversaries,
and how cultural views about bears can destroy or preserve those relationships.
He shows us Alaskan villages where security is found not in locks but in
neighbors, unlike electronically sealed suburban California homes, their lawns
studded with security signs. And he describes the peaceful resolution of conflict
between California bird hunters and Eskimos of the Bering Sea coast over
declining geese numbers, where small humanizing acts tipped the balance in
favor of cooperation.
Blending insights into subjects as diverse as music and chaos theory, Wolfe
challenges readers to reflect on their own personal conduct within nature and
within our multicultural world. Playing with Fish is a delightful and insightful
collection of modern parables that offer a new way of looking at cultural and
ecological issues, reminding us that the road between two worlds is always a two-way
street.
ROBERT J. WOLFE, Ph.D., formerly research director in the Alaska Department of Fish
and Game’s Subsistence Division, currently conducts anthropological research from his
home in San Marcos, California.

The life of a Native American activist
NATIVE AMERICAN STUDIES / BIOGRAPHY
Bernie Whitebear
An Urban Indian’s Quest for Justice
LAWNEY L. REYES
When American Indians left reservations in the 1950s, enticed by the federal
government’s relocation program, many were drawn to cities like Tacoma and
Seattle. But in these new homes they found unemployment and discrimination,
and they were no better off.
Sin Aikst Indian Bernie Whitebear was an urban activist in the Pacific
Northwest during the last decades of the twentieth century, a man dedicated to
improving the lives of Indians and other ethnic groups by working for change
and justice. He unified Northwest tribes to fight for the return of their land and
was the first to accomplish this in the United States. But far from a fearsome
agitator, Bernie was a persuasive figure who won the praise and admiration of an
entire community.
Bernie began organizing powwows in the 1960s with an eye toward greater
authenticity; and by making a name in the Seattle area as an entertainment
promoter, he soon became a successful networker and master of diplomacy,
enabling him to win over those who had long ignored the problems of urban
Indians. Soft-spoken but outspoken, Bernie successfully negotiated with officials
at all levels of government on behalf of Indians and other minorities, crossing
into political territory normally off-limits to his people.
Bernie Whitebear’s story takes readers from an impoverished youth—
including a rare account of life on the Colville Reservation during the 1930s—to
the “Red Power” movement as it traces Bernie’s emergence as an activist
influenced by contemporaries such as Bob Satiacum, Vine DeLoria, and Joe
Delacruz. By choosing this course, Bernie was clearly making a break with his
past, but with an eye toward a better future, whether staging the successful
protest at Fort Lawton or acting on behalf of Native fishing rights in Puget
Sound.
When he died in July 2000, Bernie Whitebear had left an inestimable legacy,
accomplishing things that no other Indian seemed able to do. His biography is
an inspiring story for readers at many levels, an account of how one American
Indian overcame hardships and obstacles to make a difference in the lives of his
people—and an entire community.
LAWNEY L. REYES, brother of Bernie Whitebear, is an award-winning artist and the
author of White Grizzly Bear’s Legacy. He lives in Seattle.

The Power of Horses
and Other Stories
ELIZABETH COOK-LYNN
The fifteen stories contained in The Power of Horses portray, each in a different
way, the sensitive and enduring culture of the Dakota of the Upper Plains and
convey many of the basic truths that have sustained Elizabeth Cook-Lynn’s
people for countless generations. Though the stories are often filled with
violence and grief, they are also brimming with beauty, gentleness, charm, and
humor.
In these striking and memorable tales of Dakota country, Joseph grieves that
the body of his middle son will never be returned to his native shores from the
distant World War I battlefields where he was killed; family members gather to
bury their father and barely survive their own weaknesses and bickering; a
grandmother takes her grandchild for a walk and imparts to the child some of
the old wisdom of times past; a whining hound dog—primordial to the Dakota—
competes unwittingly with Reverend Tileston’s efforts to bring the word of the
Christian God to a tight-knit family, and wins; Magpie is a poet but is also on
parole, and just as his friends have begun to rethink the finality of justice, he is
“accidentally” shot and killed in the white man’s jail.
Cook-Lynn writes unsparingly yet compassionately of reservation life in the
last century. In each of these gemlike stories she reveals something of the
mystery and essential toughness of the Dakota people.
ELIZABETH COOK-LYNN is a member of the Crow Creek Sioux Tribe, Fort Thompson, and
lives in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Since her retirement from Eastern Washington
University, she has been a visiting professor and consultant in Native American Studies
at the University of California, Davis, and at Arizona State University in Tempe, and a
writer-in-residence at several universities.

Examining the settlement of Indian water claims
Tribal Water Rights
Essays in Contemporary Law,
Policy, and Economics
Edited by JOHN E. THORSON,
SARAH BRITTON, and BONNIE G. COLBY
The settlement of Indian water rights cases remains one of the thorniest legal
issues in this country, particularly in the West. In a previous book, Negotiating
Tribal Water Rights, Colby, Thorson, and Britton presented a general overview of
the processes involved in settling such cases; this volume provides more in-depth
treatment of the many complex issues that arise in negotiating and
implementing Indian water rights settlements.
Tribal Water Rights brings together practicing attorneys and leading scholars
in the fields of law, economics, public policy, and conflict resolution to examine
issues that continue to confront the settlement of tribal claims. With coverage
ranging from the differences between surface water and groundwater disputes
to the distinctive nature of Pueblo claims, and from allotment-related problems
to the effects of the Endangered Species Act on water conflicts, the book
presents the legal aspects of tribal water rights and negotiations along with
historical perspectives on their evolution.
JOHN E. THORSON formerly served as special master for Arizona’s water adjudications
and is co-founder of Dividing the Waters, a project for judges involved in western water
adjudications. He now serves as an administrative law judge for the State of California.
SARAH BRITTON, a graduate of the University of Arizona College of Law, is an attorney
with the Public Defender in Sacramento. BONNIE G. COLBY is professor of Agricultural

WESTERN HISTORY / NATIVE AMERICAN STUDIES / ANTHROPOLOGY
Struggles for land in the Southwest
Landscapes of Fraud
Mission Tumacácori, the Baca Float,
and the Betrayal of the O’odham
THOMAS E. SHERIDAN
From the actions of Europeans in the seventeenth century to the real estate deals
of the modern era, people making a living off the land in southern Arizona have
been repeatedly robbed of their way of life. History has recorded more than
three centuries of speculative failures that never amounted to much but left
dispossessed people in their wake. This book seeks to excavate those failures, to
examine the new social spaces the schemers struggled to create and the existing
social spaces they destroyed.
Landscapes of Fraud explores how the penetration of the evolving capitalist
world-system created and destroyed communities in the Upper Santa Cruz
Valley of Arizona from the late 1600s to the 1970s. Thomas Sheridan has
melded history, anthropology, and critical geography to create a penetrating
view of greed and power and their lasting effect on those left powerless.
Sheridan first examines how O’odham culture was fragmented by the arrival
of the Spanish, telling how autonomous communities moving across landscapes
in seasonal rounds were reduced to a mission world of subordination. Sheridan
then considers the fate of the Tumacácori grant and Baca Float No. 3, another
land grant. He tells the unbroken story of land fraud from Manuel María
Gándara’s purchase of the “abandoned” Tumacácori grant at public auction in
1844 through the bankruptcy of the shady real estate developers who had
fraudulently promoted housing projects at Rio Rico during the 1960s and ’70s.
As the Upper Santa Cruz Valley underwent a wrenching transition from a
landscape of community to a landscape of fraud, the betrayal of the O’odham
became complete when land, that most elemental form of human space, was
transformed from a communal resource into a commodity bought and sold for
its future value. Today, Mission Tumacácori stands as a romantic icon of the
past while the landscapes that supported it lay buried under speculative
schemes that continue to haunt our history.
THOMAS E. SHERIDAN holds a joint appointment as professor of Anthropology at the
Southwest Center and the Department of Anthropology at the University of Arizona. He
has authored or co-edited eleven other books, including Arizona: A History and Empire of
Sand: The Seri Indians and the Struggle for Spanish Sonora, 1645–1803.

The life and writings of one of the twentieth century's greatest politicians
The Ernest W. McFarland Papers
The United States Senate
Years, 1940–1952
Edited by JAMES E. McMILLAN
The papers of a political figure allow us to form an
accurate account of their interests and activities, as well as
their interactions with contemporary colleagues. They are
unmatched as a primary historical source.
Ernest W. McFarland’s political career spanned three
decades and saw him succeed as a U.S. senator, governor of
Arizona, and chief justice of the Arizona Supreme Court.
Dating back to a time before congressional staffers
routinely created a virtual blizzard of impersonal paper-work
with a senator’s name attached to it, McFarland’s
papers reveal personal communications that passed
through his hands and reflect who he was and who he
wanted to be.
Donated by McFarland before his death in 1984, the
collection is housed at the McFarland Historic State Park in
Florence, Arizona. The papers constitute a single record
group with seven subgroups, the most important of which
is the U.S. Senate group, which makes up 163 of the 333
boxes of archival material. It is an edited collection from
this subgroup that forms this volume.
Ernest McFarland served as a Senator during World War
II and then as majority leader of the Senate during the
Korean War. The papers from his Senate years are an
indispensable resource for anyone interested in the
political landscape of our nation around the middle of the
last century.
JAMES E. McMILLAN is the author of Ernest W. McFarland:
Majority Leader of the United States Senate, Governor and Chief
Justice of the State of Arizona and has written several articles for

Ernest W. McFarland
Majority Leader of the United States
Senate, Governor and Chief Justice of
the State of Arizona
JAMES ELTON McMILLAN, JR.
Foreword by BRUCE BABBITT
Introduction by JANET NAPOLITANO
As a U.S. senator, Ernest McFarland sponsored more than
forty congressional laws, including the landmark GI Bill in
1944. Twice he led the Central Arizona Project (CAP) to
passage in the Senate on its way to ultimate success, and
his dedication led to his selection as U.S. Senate majority
leader.
After losing to Barry Goldwater in 1952, McFarland
returned to Arizona, led a Democratic resurgence, and
became a two-term governor. He enjoyed notable achieve-ments
preparing the way for industrial expansion in the
state and successfully arguing the CAP case before the U.S.
Supreme Court.
At age seventy he successfully ran for the Arizona
Supreme Court, where he wrote the controversial decision
that was overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court in Miranda
v. Arizona. He rose to chief justice in 1968, thus achieving
the unique political triple crown of serving in the highest
position in the legislative, executive, and judicial branches
of state government.
Mac passed away in Phoenix in 1984 at age 89, having
risen from a log cabin in Oklahoma to Capitol Hill and to
the Arizona statehouse, working alongside such notables as
Harry Truman and Lyndon Johnson in a career marked by
selfless concern for the common person and stewardship
of his nation.

Cultural Memory
and Biodiversity
VIRGINIA D. NAZAREA
Seed and gene banks have made great
strides in preserving the biological
diversity of traditional agricultural
plant species, but they have tended to
ignore a serious component: the
knowledge about those crops and
methods of farming held by the
people who have long raised them.
Virginia Nazarea now makes a case
for preserving cultural memory along
with biodiversity. By exploring how
indigenous people farm sweet
potatoes in Bukidnon, Philippines, she
discovers specific ways in which the
conservation of genetic resources and
the conservation of culture can
support each other.
“Contains information that will be
of value to anyone interested in
starting community-based conserva-tion,
no matter where in the world
they are located. It is a valuable tool
for those who believe that the
traditional knowledge of local
farmers is as important as the
‘advanced’ knowledge embodied in
modernized agricultural techniques.”

children—as well as on the complexi-ties
of life in the borderlands—to
explore language practices and
discourse patterns of Mexican-origin
mothers and the language socializa-tion

the unique discourses that result
from the interplay of two cultures
shape perceptions of self and
community, and how they influence
the ways in which children learn and
families engage with their children’s
schools.

LATINO STUDIES / LANGUAGE
A defining factor in Mexican American ethnicity
Mexican Americans and Language
Del dicho al hecho
GLENN A. MARTÍNEZ
When political activists rallied for the abolition of bilingual education and even
called for the declaration of English as an official language, Mexican Americans
and other immigrant groups saw this as an assault on their heritage and civil
rights. Because language is such a defining characteristic of Mexican American
ethnicity, nearly every policy issue that touches their lives involves language in
one way or another.
This book offers an overview of some of the central issues in the Mexican
American language experience, describing it in terms of both bilingualism and
minority status. It is the first book to focus on the historical, social, political, and
structural aspects of multiple languages in the Mexican American experience
and to address the principles and methods of applied sociolinguistic research in
the Mexican American community.
Spanish and non-Spanish speakers in the Mexican American community
share a common set of social and ethnic bonds. They also share a common
experience of bilingualism. As Martínez observes, the ideas that have been
constructed around bilingualism are as important to understanding the Mexican
American language experience as bilingualism itself.
Mexican Americans and Language gives students the background they need to
respond to the multiple social problems that can result from the language
differences that exist in the Mexican American community. By showing
students how to go from word to deed (del dicho al hecho), it reinforces the
importance of language for their community, and for their own lives and futures.

LATIN AMERICAN STUDIES / ANTHROPOLOGY
Examining folklore that forms identity
Unmasking Class, Gender, and
Sexuality in Nicaraguan Festival
KATHERINE BORLAND
Masaya, a provincial capital of Nicaragua, cultivates an aggressively traditional
identity that contrasts with Managua’s urban modernity. In 2001 the city was
officially designated Capital of Nicaraguan Folklore, yet residents have engaged
in a vibrant folk revival since at least the 1960s. This book documents the
creative innovations of Masaya’s performing artists.
The first extended study in English of Nicaraguan festival arts, Unmasking
Class, Gender, and Sexuality in Nicaraguan Festival is an ethnographically and
historically grounded inquiry into three festival enactments during the Somoza,
Sandinista, and Neoliberal periods: the carnivalesque torovenado masquerades,
the transvestite Negras marimba dances, and the wagon pilgrimage to
Popoyuapa. Through a series of interlinked essays, Katherine Borland shows that
these enactments constitute a people’s theater, articulating a range of
perspectives on the homegrown and the global; on class, race, and ethnicity; on
gender and sexuality; and on religious sensibilities.
Borland’s book is a case study of how the oppositional power of popular culture
resides in the process of cultural negotiation itself as communities deploy
cherished traditions to assert their difference from the nation and the world. It
addresses both the gendered dimensions of a particular festival masquerade and
the ways in which sexuality is managed in traditional festival transvestism. It
demonstrates how performativity and theatricality interact to negotiate certain
crucial realities in a festival complex. By showing how one locale negotiates,
incorporates, and resists globally circulating ideas, identities, and material
objects, it makes a major contribution to studies of ritual and festival in Latin
America.
KATHERINE BORLAND is associate professor of comparative studies in the humanities at
The Ohio State University at Newark and author of Creating Community: Hispanic
Migration to Rural Delaware.

NATIVE AMERICAN STUDIES / ANTHROPOLOGY / ARCHAEOLOGY
Native voices inform an ancestral homeland
History Is in the Land
Multivocal Tribal Traditions in
Arizona’s San Pedro Valley
T. J. FERGUSON and CHIP COLWELL-CHANTHAPHONH
Arizona’s San Pedro Valley is a natural corridor through which generations of
native peoples have traveled for more than 12,000 years, and today many tribes
consider it to be part of their ancestral homeland. This book explores the
multiple cultural meanings, historical interpretations, and cosmological values
of this extraordinary region by combining archaeological and historical sources
with the ethnographic perspectives of four contemporary tribes: Tohono
O’odham, Hopi, Zuni, and San Carlos Apache.
Previous research in the San Pedro Valley has focused on scientific
archaeology and documentary history, with a conspicuous absence of
indigenous voices, yet Native Americans maintain oral traditions that provide
an anthropological context for interpreting the history and archaeology of the
valley. The San Pedro Ethnohistory Project was designed to redress this situation
by visiting archaeological sites, studying museum collections, and interviewing
tribal members to collect traditional histories. The information it gathered is
arrayed in this book along with archaeological and documentary data to
interpret the histories of Native American occupation of the San Pedro Valley.
This work provides an example of the kind of interdisciplinary and
politically conscious work made possible when Native Americans and
archaeologists collaborate to study the past. As a methodological case study, it
clearly articulates how scholars can work with Native American stakeholders to
move beyond confrontations over who “owns” the past, yielding a more nuanced,
multilayered, and relevant archaeology.
T. J. FERGUSON owns Anthropological Research, L.L.C., in Tucson, Arizona, where he is
also an adjunct professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Arizona.
He is the author of A Zuni Atlas (with E. Richard Hart) and Historic Zuni Architecture and
Society: An Application of Space Syntax. CHIP COLWELL-CHANTHAPHONH is currently a
visiting scholar at the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He has published widely
on ethnohistory, indigenous peoples and archaeology, heritage management, and
research ethics in such journals as the Anthropological Quarterly, the Journal of
Contemporary Ethnography, History and Anthropology, and the Journal of Social
Archaeology. During the research and writing of this volume he was a Fellow with the
Center for Desert Archaeology.

ARCHAEOLOGY / BIOGRAPHY
A pioneer of Southwest archaeology
Byron Cummings
Dean of Southwest Archaeology
TODD W. BOSTWICK
Byron Cummings, known to students and colleagues as “The Dean,” had a
profound influence on the archaeology of Arizona and Utah during its early
development. An explorer, archaeologist, anthropologist, teacher, museum
director, university administrator, and state parks commissioner, Cummings was
involved in many important discoveries in the American Southwest over the
first half of the twentieth century and was a pioneer in the education of
generations of archaeologists and anthropologists.
This book presents the first comprehensive examination of Cummings’ life,
offering readers a greater understanding of his trailblazing work. Todd Bostwick
elucidates Cummings’ many intellectual and cultural contributions, investigates
the controversies in which he was embroiled, and describes his battles to wrest
control of Arizona archaeology from eastern institutions that had long dominat-ed
Southwest archaeology.
Cummings saw the Southwest as an American wilderness where the story of
cultural development revealed by the archaeologist and anthropologist was as
important as it was in Europe. Bostwick’s meticulous account of his life reflects
his great reverence for the region and pays tribute to a man whose dedication,
mentoring, and friendship have forever sealed his place as The Dean.
TODD W. BOSTWICK is the Phoenix city archaeologist and the author of Landscape of
the Spirits: Hohokam Rock Art at South Mountain Park, also published by the University of

ARCHAEOLOGY / ANTHROPOLOGY
Engaging pottery analysis to reveal social dynamics
The Social Life of Pots
Glaze Wares and Cultural Dynamics
in the Southwest, AD 1250–1680
Edited by JUDITH A. HABICHT-MAUCHE,
SUZANNE L. ECKERT, and DEBORAH L. HUNTLEY
The demographic upheavals that altered the social landscape of the Southwest
from the thirteenth through the seventeenth centuries forced peoples from
diverse backgrounds to literally remake their worlds—transformations in
community, identity, and power that are only beginning to be understood
through innovations in decorated ceramics. In addition to aesthetic changes that
included new color schemes, new painting techniques, alterations in design, and
a greater emphasis on iconographic imagery, some of the wares reflect a new
production efficiency resulting from more specialized household and commu-nity-
based industries. Also, they were traded over longer distances and were
used more often in public ceremonies than earlier ceramic types.
Through the study of glaze-painted pottery, archaeologists are beginning to
understand that pots had “social lives” in this changing world and that careful
reconstruction of the social lives of pots can help us understand the social lives
of Puebloan peoples. In this book, fifteen contributors apply a wide range of
technological and stylistic analysis techniques to pottery of the Rio Grande and
Western Pueblo areas to show what it reveals about inter- and intra-community
dynamics, work groups, migration, trade, and ideology in the precontact and
early postcontact Puebloan world.
Through material evidence, the contributors reveal that technological and
aesthetic innovations were deliberately manipulated and disseminated to
actively construct “communities of practice” that cut across language and
settlement groups. The Social Life of Pots offers a wealth of new data from this
crucial period of prehistory and is an important baseline for future work in this
area.

ARCHAEOLOGY / ENVIRONMENT
Land-use patterns and their socio-political implications
Human Ecology in the Wadi al-Hasa
Land Use and Abandonment
through the Holocene
J. BRETT HILL
Amid mounting concern over modern environmental degradation, archaeolo-gists
around the world are demonstrating the long history of such processes and
the way they have shaped current landscapes. A growing body of evidence
shows how humans have modified their environment for millennia, and contem-porary
problems cannot be understood without an adequate sense of this
ecological past and the role of humans in it.
The Wadi al-Hasa, a large canyon draining the Transjordan Plateau into the
Dead Sea, has been the location of repeated cycles of settlement and land use for
thousands of years. This book focuses on changing land-use patterns and their
relationship to socio-political organization. Using a combination of archaeologi-cal
and environmental data, Brett Hill examines the human ecology of agricul-ture
and pastoralism from the beginnings of domestication through the rise and
collapse of complex societies.
Models of land use often consider political complexity as an important factor
affecting mismanagement. Together with GIS erosion modeling and settlement
pattern analysis, Hill evaluates the archaeological, historical, and environmental
record spanning the Holocene to show how land use was affected by the rise of
centralized authority. Yet populations in the Hasa maintained the ability to
resist authority and return to a nomadic life when it became advantageous. This
process emphasizes the power of local groups to pursue alternative strategies
when their interests diverged from those of elites, creating a dynamic that
reshapes the landscape each generation.
Hill’s analysis contributes significantly to our understanding of the history of
human ecology in the southern Levant, wherein current debates are complicated
by research at different scales and by a lack of consensus on the importance of
localized phenomena. It not only complements existing research but also seeks
to refine models of processes in human ecology to demonstrate the effect of
political organization on land mismanagement.
J. BRETT HILL is a visiting assistant professor in the Sociology/Anthropology department
at Hendrix College in Conway, Arkansas. He has conducted numerous studies using
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to evaluate how environment structured the
economic and social opportunities available to ancient farmers and herders, and how
people degraded their environment.

“This is an excellent study. It is
unusual to have access to such a long-term
study for periods of more recent

study also has much relevance to
current land use and abandonment of

ARCHAEOLOGY
The fall and rise of complex societies
After Collapse
The Regeneration of Complex Societies
Edited by GLENN M. SCHWARTZ and JOHN J. NICHOLS
From the Euphrates Valley to the southern Peruvian Andes, early complex
societies have risen and fallen, but in some cases they have also been reborn.
Prior archaeological investigation of these societies has focused primarily on
emergence and collapse. This is the first book-length work to examine the
question of how and why early complex urban societies have reappeared after
periods of decentralization and collapse.
Ranging widely across the Near East, the Aegean, East Asia, Mesoamerica, and
the Andes, these cross-cultural studies expand our understanding of social
evolution by examining how societies were transformed during the period of
radical change now termed “collapse.” They seek to discover how societal
complexity reemerged, how second-generation states formed, and how these re-emergent
states resembled or differed from the complex societies that preceded
them.
The contributors draw on material culture as well as textual and ethnohistoric
data to consider such factors as preexistent institutions, structures, and ideolo-gies
that are influential in regeneration; economic and political resilience; the
role of social mobility, marginal groups, and peripheries; and ethnic change. In
addition to presenting a number of theoretical viewpoints, the contributors also
propose reasons why regeneration sometimes does not occur after collapse. A
concluding contribution by Norman Yoffee provides a critical exegesis of
“collapse” and highlights important patterns found in the case histories related to
peripheral regions and secondary elites, and to the ideology of statecraft.
After Collapse blazes new research trails in both archaeology and the study of
social change, demonstrating that the archaeological record often offers more
clues to the “dark ages” that precede regeneration than do text-based studies. It
opens up a new window on the past by shifting the focus away from the rise and
fall of ancient civilizations to their often more telling fall and rise.
GLENN M. SCHWARTZ is Whiting Professor of Archaeology at the Johns Hopkins
University and coauthor of The Archaeology of Syria: From Complex Hunter-Gatherers to
Early Urban Societies. JOHN J. NICHOLS received his Ph.D. in Near Eastern archaeology
from The Johns Hopkins University in 2004.

Tracing social evolution in Mesoamerica
Intermediate Elites in
Pre-Columbian States and Empires
Edited by CHRISTINA M. ELSON and R. ALAN COVEY
From the Mesoamerican highlands to the Colca Valley in Peru, pre-Columbian
civilizations were bastions of power that have largely been viewed through the
lens of rulership, or occasionally through bottom-up perspectives of resistance.
Rather than focusing on rulers or peasants, this book examines how intermediate
elites—both men and women—helped to develop, sustain, and resist state policies
and institutions. Employing new archaeological and ethnohistorical data, its
contributors trace a 2,000-year trajectory of elite social evolution in the Zapotec,
Wari, Aztec, Inka, and Maya civilizations.
This is the first volume to consider how individuals subordinate to imperial
rulers helped to shape specific forms of state and imperial organization. Taking
a broader scope than previous studies, it is one of the few works to
systematically address these issues in both Mesoamerica and the Central Andes.
It considers how these individuals influenced the long-term development of the
largest civilizations of the ancient Americas, opening a new window on the role
of intermediate elites in the rise and fall of ancient states and empires
worldwide.
The authors demonstrate how such evidence as settlement patterns,
architecture, decorative items, and burial patterns reflect the roles of
intermediate elites in their respective societies, arguing that they were
influential actors whose interests were highly significant in shaping the specific
forms of state and imperial organization. Their emphasis on provincial elites
particularly shifts examination of early states away from royal capitals and
imperial courts, explaining how local elites and royal bureaucrats had
significant impact on the development and organization of premodern states.
Together, these papers demonstrate that intricate networks of intermediate
elites bound these ancient societies together—and that competition between
individuals and groups contributed to their decline and eventual collapse. By
addressing current theoretical concerns with agency, resistance to state
domination, and the co-option of local leadership by imperial administrators, it
offers valuable new insight into the utility of studying intermediate elites.

History. R. ALAN COVEY is assistant professor of Anthropology at Southern Methodist
University.

ARCHAEOLOGY / LATIN AMERICAN STUDIES
Exploring aspects of Maya society
Lifeways in the Northern
Maya Lowlands
New Approaches to Archaeology
in the Yucatán Peninsula
Edited by JENNIFER P. MATHEWS and BETHANY A. MORRISON
The flat, dry reaches of the northern Yucatán Peninsula have been largely
ignored by archaeologists drawn to the more illustrious sites of the south. This
book is the first volume to focus entirely on the northern Maya lowlands,
presenting a broad cross-section of current research projects in the region by
both established and up-and-coming scholars.
To address the heretofore unrecognized importance of the northern lowlands
in Maya prehistory, the contributors cover key topics relevant to Maya studies:
the environmental and historical significance of the region, the archaeology of
both large and small sites, the development of agriculture, resource manage-ment,
ancient politics, and long-distance interaction among sites. As a volume in
the series Native Peoples of the Americas, it adds a human dimension to
archaeological findings by incorporating modern ethnographic data.
By exploring various social and political levels of Maya society through a
broad expanse of time, Lifeways in the Northern Maya Lowlands not only
reconstructs a little-known past, it also suggests the broad implications of
archaeology for related studies of tourism, household economies, and ethno-archaeology.
It is a benchmark work that pointedly demonstrates the need for
researchers in both north and south to ignore modern geographic boundaries in
their search for new ideas to further their understanding of the ancient Maya.

SPACE SCIENCE
Meteorites and the
Early Solar System II
Edited by DANTE S. LAURETTA and HARRY Y. McSWEEN
They range in size from microscopic particles to masses of many tons. The
geologic diversity of asteroids and other rocky bodies of the solar system are
displayed in the enormous variety of textures and mineralogies observed in
meteorites. The composition, chemistry, and mineralogy of primitive meteorites
collectively provide evidence for a wide variety of chemical and physical
processes. This book synthesizes our current understanding of the early solar
system, summarizing information about processes that occurred before its
formation. It will be valuable as a textbook for graduate education in planetary
science and as a reference for meteoriticistts and researchers in allied fields
worldwide.

GENERAL INFORMATION Prices, discounts, and publication dates
are subject to change without notice. An “s” following a price
indicates short discount to booksellers. However, trade discount

9 copies. A complete statement of discount and return terms is
available on request.
Individuals are encouraged to order through booksellers.
Payment or credit card information must accompany all orders
placed directly with the Press and include $3.00 postage and
handling for the first book and $2.00 for each additional book.
For delivery outside the U.S., please inquire. Orders are usually
shipped within 48 hours of receipt. Publication months of
forthcoming titles are tentative, and books are shipped when

SUBSIDIARY RIGHTS For information on reprint, foreign, book
club, and audio rights, contact the subsidiary rights department
at 520/621-1441 or via e-mail at subrts@uapress.arizona.edu.
EXAMINATION COPIES Instructors seeking examination copies
must inquire on school letterhead and cite the course for which
the book is intended. For paperbacks with a list price less than
$25.00, enclose $5.00 for postage and handling for each title
requested. (Requests for paperback exam copies are limited to
four titles per semester.) Examination copies of clothbound
books and paperbacks retailing for $25.00 or more will be sent on
a 90-day examination basis and invoiced at a 10% discount.
Please supply a MasterCard or Visa number, expiration date, and
phone number. If after 90 days we have not received evidence of
adoption (a bookstore order for a minimum of 10 copies) or
return of the book in salable condition, we will bill the credit
card for purchase of the book. The Press reserves the right to limit
examination copies to appropriate courses.
DESK COPIES If an order for 10 or more copies of a book has
already been placed through a bookstore, a complimentary desk
copy is available. The request must be made on departmental
letterhead and must include the name of the bookstore, the
number of books ordered, the name and number of the course,
and the projected enrollment.
