FOREWORD BY MICHAEL MARTIN MURPHEY

Whether read by lantern light in a horse camp or in an easy chair, you’ll enjoy this adventure into a genuine, nineteenth-century cowboy dance that now boasts an international reputation. —Michael Martin Murphey, from the foreword

n the 1880s, there wasn’t much in Anson, Texas, in the way of entertainment for the area’s cowhands. Star Hotel operator M. G. Rhodes changed that when he hosted a Grand Ball the weekend before Christmas. A restless traveling salesman, rancher, and poet from New York named William Lawrence Chittenden, a guest at the Star Hotel, was so impressed with the soiree that he penned his observances in the poem “The Cowboys’ Christmas Ball.” Reenacted annually since 1934 and based on Chittenden’s poem, the contemporary dances attract people from coast to coast, from Canada, and from across Europe and elsewhere. Since 1993, Grammy Award–winning musical artist Michael Martin Murphey has played at the popular event. Far more than a history of the Jones County dance, Chittenden’s poem defines the many people and events mentioned and explains the Jones County landscape laid out in the celebrated work. The book covers the evolution of cowboy poetry and places Chittenden and his poem chronologically within this ever-changing Western genre. Dancin’ in Anson: A History of the Texas Cowboys’ Christmas Ball is a refreshing look at a cowboy poet, his poem, and a joyous Christmas-time family event that traces its roots back nearly 130 years. Paul H. Carlson is emeritus professor of history at Texas Tech University. He has published numerous books and articles, is a member of the Texas Institute of Letters and the Philosophical Society of Texas, and a Fellow of the Texas State Historical Association and the West Texas Historical Association. He lives with his wife Ellen in Lubbock County.

Ro Wauer is my hero. There are only a few people who have significantly influenced my nearly four decades with the National Park Service (NPS) and Roland Wauer is in the top tier of the list, yet probably does not even know that. His vision and values, plus his ability to turn those into actual policy and programs, intersected my early years and shaped my entire career path and philosophy of national park protection. —Jonathan B.

ew people have the opportunity to live and work in America’s magnificent national parks, let alone in a wide diversity of those great parks. For thirty-two years, beginning when he was hired as a seasonal ranger until he retired in 1989, Roland H. Wauer’s career took him to eight national parks, a regional office in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and to Washington, DC, as Chief of the Division of Natural Resources. In an “inside-out” look at his career, Wauer takes the reader on a wildlife adventure through a number of those parks, documenting his experiences with the birds and other animals in each one. An avid birder, he has made significant contributions to what was known about bird populations and avian habitats, and he has worked on a number of research projects involving mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fishes, invertebrates, and other wildlife species. Follow along with Wauer as he recalls flying squirrels, great gray owls, and Clark’s nutcrackers at Crater Lake; Nelson’s bighorns, prairie falcons, LeConte’s thrashers, and sidewinders at Death Valley; flammulated and spotted owls at Zion; and mountain lions, javelinas, peregrine falcons, cave swallows, and Colima warblers at Big Bend. In addition to his career with the National Park Service, Roland H. Wauer is the author of twenty-five books and almost two hundred articles about the natural environment, primarily on birds and butterflies.

For the first time in print, rich, provocative first-hand stories of life in the Bronx in the twentieth century

I have known and worked with nearly every one of those interviewed in Bronx Faces and Voices. I can still hear their voices, and many of them inspired me and others.

I Bronx Faces and Voices Sixteen Stories of Courage and Community Edited by Emita Brady Hill and Janet Butler Munch Foreword by Fernando Ferrer Preface by Ray Bromley Photographs by Georgeen Comerford and Walter Rosenblum

n Bronx Faces and Voices, sixteen men and women tell their personal, uncensored stories of the New York City borough—before, during, and after the troubled years of arson, crime, abandonment, and flight in the 1970s and 1980s. The voices in this volume are as eclectic as the Bronx itself: elected officials, religious leaders, and activists who were determined to preserve the beauty of their parks and the stability of their community. They had the courage to stay and fight against drug dealers, absent and indifferent landlords, banks that red-lined entire neighborhoods, and a voracious media that made the Bronx an international symbol of urban disaster. Some are no longer alive. But each of the sixteen played a positive role in a pivotal time, and they all deserve to be remembered and to have their voices heard. Portraits in this volume by noted photographers Georgeen Comerford and Walter Rosenblum document the Bronx faces in their beauty and diversity: young and old, witnesses to the history they lived and created.

lthough the United States is a nation founded by immigrants, Alberto Gonzales and David Strange believe that national immigration policy and enforcement over the past thirty years has been inadequate. This failure by federal leaders has resulted in a widespread introduction of state immigration laws across the country. Gonzales and Strange assert that the solution to current immigration challenges is reform of federal immigration laws, including common sense border control, tougher workplace enforcement, changes to the Immigration and Nationality Act, and a revised visa process. Gonzales and Strange embrace many provisions of current pending legislation, but are sharply critical of others. Their proposals call for an expansion of the grounds of inadmissibility to foster greater respect of law and to address the problem of visa overstays, while also calling for a restriction on grounds of inadmissibility in other areas to address the large undocumented population and increasing humanitarian crisis. They explore nationality versus citizenship and introduce a pathway to nationality as an alternative to a pathway to citizenship. This immigration policy blueprint examines the political landscape in Washington and makes the argument that progress will require compromise and the discipline to act with compassion and respect. Alberto R. Gonzales is former counsel to the President and Attorney General under the George W. Bush administration. He is currently Dean of the Belmont University College of Law, where he holds the Doyle Rogers Distinguished Chair of Law. David N. Strange is a managing partner at the law firm of Whittenburg, Strange & Walker, P.C., and adjunct professor of law at Texas Tech University.

Myth and government clash and collaborate in one of America’s largest and most remote canyonlands

wyhee County, Idaho, also known as the “Big Quiet,” is the largest and least inhabited area in the lower forty-eight states. Who gets to decide how to use it? From violent mine wars in the mid-nineteenth century to environmental conservation disputes at the end of the twentieth, people in the West have battled over the role of government and notions of American identity to answer this question. Winners ultimately controlled the perception of their battles, often shaping the contours of the next conflict. Similarly, historians debated interpretations of the West. In the early twentieth century, Frederick Jackson Turner argued that interactions on the frontier formed American characteristics of rugged individualism, democracy, aggression, and innovation. The “New” Western historians of the late 1970s attempted to debunk this theory, revealing the racial and ethnic diversity of the West, reminding us of the role of the environment, and documenting how settlers and later corporations conquered land wrested away from Native Americans. While “New” Western historians shot holes in Turner’s thesis, the myths of the Old West prevailed. People craved the identity offered in Western themed novels, films, and tourism more than historical facts. Showdown in the Big Quiet demonstrates how the “Old West” speaks to the “New” and proves how the power of Western mythology moved from background to central character. John P. Bieter, Jr. is an associate professor of history and co-director of the Center for Basque Studies at Boise State University. He is the author of An Enduring Legacy: A History of the Basques in Idaho.

young Polish diplomat turned cavalry officer, Jan Karski joined the Polish Underground movement in 1939. He became a courier for the Underground, crossing enemy lines to serve as a liaison between occupied Poland and the free world. In 1942, Jewish leaders asked him to carry a desperate message to Allied leaders: the news of Hitler’s effort to exterminate the Jews of Europe. To be able to deliver an authentic report, Karski twice toured the Warsaw Ghetto in disguise and later volunteered to be smuggled into a camp that was part of the Nazi murder machine. Carrying searing tales of inhumanity, Karski set out to alert the world to the emerging Holocaust, meeting with top Allied officials and later President Roosevelt, to deliver his descriptions of genocide. Part spy thriller and part compelling story of moral courage against all odds, Karski is the first definitive account of perhaps the most significant warning of the impending Holocaust to reach the free world. E. Thomas Wood’s investigative, business, and historical journalism has appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and numerous other newspapers and magazines. He is a graduate of Vanderbilt University and holds an M.Phil. degree in European Studies from the University of Cambridge. Historian Stanisław M. Jankowski is a leading authority on Poland’s underground movement during the Second World War. He is a graduate of Jagiellonian University in Krakow and the author of more than 20 books. For his historical work related to the Katyn massacre, he has been awarded the Officer’s Cross of the Order of Polonia Restituta.

A microcosm of the significance of sport to community history anywhere

9 F/W 2014 www.ttupress.org

lthough the Latino/a population of the United States has exploded since the 1960s, an analysis of its place in the history of American sport has, until recently, been sorely lacking. The thoughtful essays in More Than Just Peloteros demonstrate that participation in sport and recreation develops identity and involvement in the lives of Spanish-speaking people throughout what is now the United States. The chapters feature accounts of eras and events as varied as the Latino experience itself, including horse racing in colonial San Antonio, boxing in New York City, baseball in the barrios of 1930s Chicago, basketball in a 1950s Arizona mining town, and, of course, high school football in South Texas. As the nation’s demographics continue to change, more and more Latinos/as will, undoubtedly, leave their marks on the fields of athletic competition at levels ranging from the local to the professional, the business offices of franchises and colleges, and as general consumers of American sporting events and goods. This volume recognizes and encourages the role that sport and recreation play in the day-to-day existence of Spanish speakers in the United States. Jorge Iber is a professor of history and associate dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at Texas Tech University. Over the past ten years, he has written and published widely on the topic of the participation of Latinos/as in the history of US sports.

ith Dreaming of the Delta, Perla Suez joins the ranks of other prominent Argentine writers who have incorporated the horrors of the violent period of the Proceso de Reorganización Nacional. Highly experimental, this novel is a tale of secrecy, betrayal, and violence that reflects on a personal scale the national struggle for power and control at the height of the dictatorship of 1976 to 1983. And though violence takes center stage, it is played out in a private drama that unfolds in a mansion on the shores of the Paraná River in the province of Entre Ríos. Like the timeless river itself, Suez’s words ebb and flow across the pages, leaving in their wake volatile voids that suggest to the reader that what is not disclosed is as powerful as what is revealed. With a skeletal prose that blurs the line between novel, theater, and film, Suez condenses decades of cruelty and longing into a few brief hours.

Perla Suez is an Argentine novelist, essayist, translator, and author of children’s books. She was born in Córdoba but lived the first fifteen years of her life in Basavilbaso in the province of Entre Ríos. She has most recently been awarded the Premio Nacional de Novela, the most prestigious award that can be bestowed upon an Argentine author. Rhonda Dahl Buchanan is a professor of Spanish and director of Latin American and Latino Studies at the University of Louisville. Her many translations include Perla Suez’s The Entre Rios Trilogy: Three Novels (University of New Mexico Press).

Following Kit Carson from Bascom to the Walls, one hundred years later

11 F/W 2014 www.ttupress.org

I’ve simply been in the right place at the right time (and lived long enough) to have had success as an archaeologist. I’d gladly have traded most of my acknowledgments in order to enjoy the range of talents shown here by Alvin Lynn. I’ve never read such a combination of detailed history and geography. He managed to put me there as a witness, and I’m grateful. —Jay Blaine, consultant, La Salle archaeological projects

n a late November morning in 1864, Col. Kit Carson and his US troops, under orders from the commander of the New Mexico Military Department, attacked Kiowa Chief Dohӓsan’s winter village in the Texas Panhandle. Warriors retaliated with stiff resistance as their women and children escaped. Fighting proceeded down the Canadian River to the abandoned trading post of Adobe Walls as hundreds more Kiowas and Comanches joined the battle. Nearing sunset, Carson’s troops burned Dohӓsan’s village, and although remarkably few lives were lost in the battle itself, the enduring consequences were hardly insignificant. Well-known as an explorer, guide, and frontiersman, Carson’s involvement at the First Battle of Adobe Walls has been overlooked. Beginning his research in the 1990s, Alvin Lynn set out to fill that void when he located and walked the 200-mile-long wagon road from Fort Bascom to Adobe Walls and collected 1,800 metal artifacts from 15 historic camps, including the burned Kiowa village. Among the recovered artifacts were fired friction primers verifying the placement of howitzers at the battle site. With nearly eighty battle site and artifact photographs taken by renowned photographer Wyman Meinzer, Kit Carson and the First Battle of Adobe Walls documents Carson’s military expedition from Fort Bascom to Adobe Walls and Lynn’s own journey more than a century later to discover what really happened. Alvin R. Lynn grew up on a farm along the Pease River in rural Motley County, Texas. He is a retired social studies and science teacher and coach. With a lifelong passion for archaeology and history, he now serves as a steward for the Texas Historical Commission. He and his wife Nadyne live in Amarillo, Texas.

Re-examining seventeenth-century French style

Too often, cultural historians and costume scholars invoke fashion engravings as documentary “evidence” for the truth-claims they wish to set forth about the clothing of a particular era; yet as the authors and editors of this superb volume make clear, fashion prints themselves have no less a complex history, and no fewer rich interpretive possibilities, than do other forms of written or visual expression. —Caroline Weber, author of Queen of Fashion: What Marie Antoinette Wore to the Revolution

etween 1678 and 1710, Parisian presses printed hundreds of images of elegantly attired men and women dressed in the latest mode, and posed to display every detail of their clothing and accessories. Long used to illustrate dress of the period, these fashion prints have been taken at face value and used uncritically. Drawing on perspectives from art history, costume history, French literature, museum conservation, and theatrical costuming, the essays in this volume explore what the prints represent and what they reveal about fashion and culture in the seventeenth century. With more than one hundred illustrations, Fashion Prints in the Age of Louis XIV constitutes not only an innovative analysis of fashion engravings, but also one of the most comprehensive collections of seventeenth-century fashion images available in print. Kathryn Norberg is a professor of history and gender studies at the University of California, Los Angeles. She has published on French history and is the coeditor of Furnishing the Eighteenth Century: What Furniture Can Tell Us about the European and American Past. Sandra Rosenbaum is the retired curator-in-charge of the Doris Stein Research Center for Costume and Textiles, a part of the Department of Costume and Textiles, at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, for which she developed and supervised an extensive library of primary and secondary source materials.

rom the Texas panhandle to the mountains of Arizona, Amy Auker has lived the cowboy life—as wife, as mother, as cook, as ranch hand, as writer. In finegrained detail she captures the prairie light, the traffic on small farm-to-market roads, the vacant stillness of shipping pens when fall works are over. But she also captures the unmistakable Westernness of the people and animals around her: the son who must get back on the horse, the husband who gives great gifts, the horses whose names and temperaments are as recognizable as family. Auker understands those who live in the sway of nature’s moods far off the main roads, and she commends them to us in luminous prose backlit by her own hard-earned experience.

Amy Hale Auker writes essays, poems, and fiction while working for day wages on an Arizona ranch. Twenty years on commercial cattle operations in Texas cooking for cowboys, homeschooling children, and taking long walks have given her material for writing about a way of life that is alive and well in the heart of the American West. She lives in Prescott, Arizona.

eenager John Watts came to territorial Santa Fe in 1858 from Bloomington, Indiana. His father believed the clear air of northern New Mexico would be beneficial to John’s health. In Santa Fe, they joined John’s older brother, J. Howe Watts. John and Howe are left on their own in Santa Fe much of the time, and John decides to improve his penmanship and foster orderly habits by keeping a daily journal. In a mixture of worldliness and naiveté, maturity and boyish enthusiasm, insightful observations of others, and critical comments on his own behavior, John captures aspects of daily life in Santa Fe that are not generally found in public documents. Public officials help educate the Anglo children living in the capital: Governor Rencher teaches French in his office at the Palace of the Governors, Reverend Gorman of the Baptist Church teaches Spanish, Francis Bauer, the army band director, gives music lessons. John voraciously reads the contemporary literary classics and the major American historians of his day. In a Who’s Who of territorial New Mexico, Adios Nuevo Mexico opens a window into what an American boy in his late teens is reading, thinking, doing, and seeing in Santa Fe. David Remley is professor emeritus at the University of New Mexico. He is the author of three other books, most recently Kit Carson: The Life of an American Border Man. He lives near Silver City, New Mexico.

n 1839, José Policarpo Rodriguez came north with his father from Zaragosa, Mexico, to the Republic of Texas. Poli was ten years old when he arrived in Texas, and he and his father settled in the Hill Country near San Antonio. Poli grew up with Comanches, surveyed territory for the Republic of Texas and the United States Army, fought against warring Indians, and mapped settlements for nineteenth-century German settlers in Texas. He was the first non-Indian to discover the Big Bend Country and Cascades Caverns, and during the Mexican–American War and the Civil War, he was Captain of the San Antonio Home Guard. Caught between the three main elements that made up early Texas—Mexicans, Indians, and Anglos—he struggled to decide where his true loyalties lay, and his decisions showed a kind of courage that was rare in those days . . . and is still rare today.

avensbrück was the only major Nazi concentration camp for women. Between 1939 and 1945, it was the site of murder by slave labor, torture, starvation, shooting, lethal injection, medical experimentation, and gassing. In its six-year history, 132,000 women from twenty-seven countries were imprisoned in Ravensbrück. Only about 15,000 in all survived. Jewish Women Prisoners of Ravensbrück reclaims the lost identities of these victims. Together with a team of researchers, Judith Buber Agassi interviewed 138 survivors of Ravensbrück on four continents. Using the survivor testimonies to corroborate her research from major archives in Germany, Israel, and the United States, as well as from transport and death registration lists and from records that were smuggled out of the camp before liberation, Buber Agassi constructs an image of the women of Ravensbrück: their countries of origin, age distribution, professional roles prior to the war, religious backgrounds, and the types of social interactions and emotional support that existed among and between the various groups of women. To date, Buber Agassi has recovered the identity of over 16,000 Ravensbrück prisoners. Now in paperback, this study of Ravensbrück, largely overlooked in favor of more notorious killing camps, brings to the forefront a unique set of Holocaust Victims. The daughter of a Ravensbrück survivor, Judith Buber Agassi has taught sociology and political science at universities in the United States, Canada, Israel, Germany, and Hong Kong.

Every day, Moishe’s father waits for the postman, hoping for news of his family, who are prisoners of the Nazis. Interspersed among Moishe’s reminiscences are the letters those relatives might have written—but never came. In Part II, Moishe is imprisoned in the dungeons of the military junta that governed Uruguay in the 1970s and 1980s. Tortured and starving, he takes refuge in the world of his imagination, composing another letter that never came—a letter to his father that embodies his own quest for identity. Part III is largely a meditation on the redemptive power of the word, real and imagined. This poignant, humane work, as Uruguayan and Jewish as it is universal, links the cruelty of the Holocaust to that of the Uruguayan military, and the resistance of Hitler’s victims to Rosencof’s own.

Sport in the American West

Hannah, Jackie, and Nick are transported back in time from an America with an African American president to the troubled Civil War era, where all three experience firsthand the cruelty of slavery and the promises of freedom when General Gordon Granger came ashore in Galveston in 1865. This momentous arrival spawned a new era in race relations in Texas and the celebrated African American holiday of Juneteenth—a day of jubilee, jubilation, and Joshua-like pride and dignity. —Maceo Crenshaw Dailey, Jr., director, African American Studies, University of Texas at El Paso

Modern Jewish History

What Uriah Levy achieved as a high-ranking Jewish officer in the United States Navy would have been remarkable if it had happened in 1945. The fact that it happened in the early 19th century is astounding—and a testament to one ordinary man’s extraordinary tenacity and courage. Commodore Levy achieves a kind of magic: this distant time and its people suddenly are alive, breathing beside us. The pages fly by, and with each page you feel a deepening sense of what it means, then and now, to live a life of integrity. —Dara Horn, author of A Guide for the Perplexed

This is truly an amazing and powerful read. The Tailors of Tomaszow is a critically important work of history especially as we lose the eyewitness accounts of Holocaust survivors. Rena Margulies Chernoff and Allan Chernoff have done all of us a real service. ―Wolf Blitzer, CNN Anchor

John Clayton has proven once again that he is not just a master writer, but a master of breaking and mending the reader’s heart. . . . The world here, dark as it can be, glitters. ―Victoria Redel, author of The Border of Truth: A Novel

Rachel Mennies looks to her familial and social history to shape a collection inhabited by the figures of her past. Beautifully crafted, these poems enjoin compassion and wit, experimental and formal designs, telling “the truth/and the lies together.” This astonishing debut brings a marvelous voice to American letters. —Robin Becker, author of Tiger Heron In order to understand our present, we must interrogate our past. In these attentive poems, Rachel Mennies probes the mechanism of memory—what is lost, what is preserved— while raising the stakes with inventive forms and rhetoric. This collection is a necessary, illuminating conversation with history that spans faiths and cultures. —Sandra Beasley, author of I Was the Jukebox

John Clayton is a mystic, a seer, a magi, and yet he doesn’t know all, or care to. Within the mysteries lie the hearts of these great stories.
