Publisher Description: From the time of the Spanish quest for the legendary Seven Cities of C bola to the evolution of the twentieth-century state, the story of Arizona has been vigorous and exciting. Odie B. Faulk's introduction to this varied, harsh, and beautiful land provides a summary, a synthesis of the four hundred years of the state's past, a look at the present, and an overview of its potential. The newcomer, the winter visitor, the tourist, and the student will find it a ready source of information, while native Arizonans will discover in it new reasons for loving their state. |
