Arizona is unique among American states, not only in its geography
and geology but also in the diversity of its climate, in its
indigenous animal and plant life, and in the history of its first
inhabitants-communities of Indians whose ancestors arrived on the
scene more than 20,000 years ago. Arizona is also the youngest of
the contiguous mainland states of America...precisely because of
these very same factors. Its climate, geography and Indian tribes
were major barriers that prevented the territory from becoming
widely populated by the Spanish, Mexicans and early
European-Americans, and from being used as a cross-roads by
American fur/pelt trappers, gold prospectors and settlers who began
pushing west in the mid-1800s. Now, it is exactly these same
factors that make Arizona a great place to live as well as a
world-famous travel destination. The stories of how Arizona finally
became what it is today are as amazing as the lay and the beauty of
the land. Great background reading for residents and visitors
alike, and an ideal gift.
