The book takes it name from Carrizo Canyon, New Mexico, the place where the Abeyta family homesteaded in 1920. The book portrays the life of a Hispanic family in New Mexico whose ancestors first came to New Mexico from Spain in the mid-eighteenth century. The portrayal sheds light on the lives of an isolated New Mexican community in a harsh and unforgiving land.
