In the present volume the object has been to present in a popular form a simple and direct narrative of the history of New Mexico, from the discovery and conquest by the Spaniards to the present time. N 0 original research has been possible, but the principal translations and modern authorities consulted are appended, and it is hoped that the book may prove of interest in that it deals with one of the most remarkable and least known of our Western Territories. Acknowledgments are chiefly due to G. E. Yerger for the biographical matter of this volume. He has worked diligently in the collection and preparation of same.
