Near the center of Arizona, in the foothills of the Bradshaw
Mountains, lies the small, unincorporated town of Mayer. With a
population of less than 1500 people, Mayer remains unknown to
almost all but its residents and neighbors, but its history is as
lively and resonant as many larger cities. This volume chronicles
the story of this rural western town and the men and women who put
it on the map, including its founders, Joseph and Sarah Mayer, who
established their settlement around Big Bug Stage Station,
purchased for $1200 in 1882. It traces the continued influence of
the Mayers and other early families through later generations and
the town's role in the growth of ranching, the railroad and mining.
Covering a spectrum of topics integral to the history of central
Arizona, this study depicts the uncompromising landscape and
pioneering spirit that defines the American frontier.
