“As someone who grew up in Albuquerque in the '50's in the Old Town area, sneaking off to the banks of the river especially in the summer, is still etched in my mind. The photographs are stunning, nostalgic and a little sad. And to me that is the mark...”
t document the sweeping history of that transformation--from those of nineteenth-century expeditionary photographer W. H. Jackson to the work of the great twentieth-century chronicler of the river, Laura Gilpin. The photographs are assembled in thematic bundles--river crossings, cultivation, trade, floods, the Mexican insurrection, the Big Bend region, and the estuary where the river at last meets the Gulf of Mexico. Essays by Rina Swentzell, G. Emlen Hall, Juan Estevan Arellano, Estella Leopold, Norma Elia Cantú, Jan Reid, and Dan Flores illuminate the images.
