Nostrand (geography, U. of Oklahoma) examines a distinctive group of people who for 400 years have made their home in the mountains and river valleys of northern New Mexico. He explains that today the area is eroded and less majestic, but still stands apart--a distinctive island in America, the only surviving colonial Spanish subculture. With 18 photographs and 42 maps.
