About The Book
First published in 1988, this award-winning compendium of New Mexico’s folklore is now available in a shorter, easier to use, updated edition.
“A masterful encyclopedia… a superb reference to historical folklore traditions in New Mexico up to World War II. It will stand alone as an invaluable synthesis of history, literature, ethnography, and material culture.” — Journal of the Southwest
“The central theme of the book is the concept of New Mexico life as a multiethnic experience drawn from the Native American, Hispanic, and Anglo cultures. The work is part history, part ethnography, and part anthropology… This is a work that should appeal to all aficionados of New Mexican history and life… A delight to read.” — Journal of the West
“Demonstrates in a dramatic fashion that the subject matter of folklore is not the quaint and peripheral cultural bypaths of bygone days, but rather a means of approaching the basic attitudes, beliefs, and ways of thinking about things on which much cultural behavior is based. This is a good, thought-provoking job on a monumental task.” — Journal of Arizona History
“Jam-packed with drama and information… For the newcomer, the long-time resident and the lifetime native of New Mexico, this book will be a delight.” — New Mexico Magazine
