Scattered across New Mexico are over 500 scenic historic markers
that give brief historical facts about the area and provide
interesting clues to New Mexico's vividness. This comprehensive
guide gives locations of the markers, the information as it appears
on each marker, and names and addresses for further information.
Reading one marker, you can imagine how it would feel to ride
shotgun with Sheriff Pat Garrett as he chases the elusive Billy the
Kid. Another marker helps you explore the area where Pat was later
murdered in a still unsolvable crime. You can even discover tracks
left by a dinosaur, and find proof of early man long before the
rise and fall of the mysterious Anasazi. There are places where
early farming puebloeans left their ghosts and ruins, and you can
follow in the footsteps of early explorers such as Vasquez de
Coronado, Antonio de Espejo, and others as they search for gold and
claim this land for Spain. There are places where settlers created
the Santa Fe Trail and the Butterfield and Cooke's stage routes.
You'll marvel at how three cultures have met to create the unique
land called New Mexico. Whether you are a resident or a visitor,
you will find this to be a valuable guide while exploring the
remarkable state of New Mexico. PHIL T. ARCHULETTA's experience
with the historical markers as well as his love of New Mexico and
its history have been life long. Owner and CEO of P&M Signs,
Inc., he has been in the sign manufacturing business for over
thirty years and has traveled the state, logging each marker, in
order to preserve this aspect of New Mexico's colorful history.
SHARYL S. HOLDEN, a professional photographer and writer, has been
enchanted by the wide open spaces of New Mexico all her life. She
and Phil have worked diligently to prepare this enjoyable guide for
both tourists and residents.
