About the Book

Internationally renowned photographer Lucian Niemeyer and National Park Service historian Art Gomez have combined talents in a new presentation on New Mexico. Over 150 colour photographs encompass the entire state throughout the seasons presenting New Mexico's people, cultures, and magnificent scenery at the millennium. Gomez's sweeping history views the state in terms of corridors, geographic as well as cultural. New Mexico's mountains, deserts, and rivers form natural corridors that migrating birds and animals have traditionally used for survival. Navigating these same corridors across the state, human cultures of Paleo, Plains and Pueblo Indians, Hispanos, and Anglos forged viable communities on the astringent New Mexican landscape. Pueblo ancestors migrated from austere environments throughout the Southwest to more inviting surroundings on the Rio Grande. Plains Indians from the north and Hispano tradesmen from the south converged via the Camino Real. American settlers migrated west along the Santa Fe Trail, the southernmost corridor around the formidable Rocky Mountains. Improved transportation such as the railroad and later Route 66, precursors to the interstate highway system, annually lured new inhabitants to this compelling land called New Mexico.

Review :
"A comprehensive photographic overview of modern New Mexico by Lucian Niemeyer, accompanied by a nicely paced historical essay by Art Gmez, is offered in "New Mexico: Images of a Land and Its People," With its stunning images and brisk prose, this is the essential book for New Mexico lovers." "A coffee-table book featuring gorgeous photographs of New Mexico--but which also contains a concise yet comprehensive history of the state . . . visually stunnning." "If you've ever wondered what makes New Mexico so enchanting, catch a glimpse of the awe-inspiring beauty captured by Lucian Niemeyer's camera. The photos are bound to have you calling up your travel agent for the first flight out to this border state, and Art Gmez's historical treatise is sure to excite you the entire plane ride over." "It is a beautiful, beautiful book with an inspired text by Art Gmez, one which may tempt even more equity immigrants to move to New Mexico." "Pictures of the landscapes, people, rural architecture, and wildlife taken in every corner of the state make up "New Mexico: Images of a Land & Its People," the newest offering by prolific Santa Fe photographer Lucian Niemeyer." "The photos are a collection of postcard landscapes, cowboys, Indian ruins, wildlife, flowers. A Santa Fe street scene, a log cabin, Truchas in a storm. The Plains of San Agustín, one of our nearest Empty Quarters. It's enough to make you want to gas up and hit the road. Let the text, pictures, and bibliography pique your interest and guide you deeper into discovering New Mexico yourself." "The presigious University of New Mexico Press has outdone itself. Always a publisher of wonderful books, this latest offering from Niemeyer and Gómez exceeds even UNMP's high standars for excellence. You will treasure this beautiful book." "This book will make an excellent enticement gift for an out-of-area friend who needs luring to New Mexico." "This is a great Christmas present for those who know and love New Mexico."
