Desert Drums - Leo Crane - Bog

Desert Drums: The Pueblo Indians Of New Mexico 1540-1928 is a comprehensive historical account of the Pueblo Indians of New Mexico, written by Leo Crane. The book covers the period from the arrival of the Spanish in 1540 to the late 1920s, and provides an in-depth look at the Pueblo culture, traditions, and way of life during this time. Crane begins by exploring the early encounters between the Spanish and the Pueblo people, and the impact that the Spanish colonization had on their lives. He then delves into the various conflicts and struggles that the Pueblo Indians faced over the centuries, including the Pueblo Revolt of 1680, which saw the Pueblo people rise up against the Spanish and temporarily drive them out of their lands. The book also covers the changes that took place in Pueblo society during the 19th and early 20th centuries, such as the introduction of new technologies and the influence of American culture. Crane examines how these changes affected the Pueblo people, and how they adapted to these new circumstances while still maintaining their traditional way of life. Throughout the book, Crane draws on a wide range of historical sources, including Spanish colonial records, Pueblo oral histories, and archaeological evidence. He also includes numerous photographs and illustrations to help bring the history of the Pueblo Indians to life. Desert Drums: The Pueblo Indians Of New Mexico 1540-1928 is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of the Pueblo people, as well as for scholars and students of Native American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
