Résumé:

"This unusual history and travel book explores a fascinating cross-section of New Mexico's historic hotels, inns, stage stations, resorts, and guest ranches that were operational before 1940. A few are long gone, but most are still open for business. These southwest havens are constant reminders of the region's long continuum of travel and tourism and rich symbols of community identity and change. New Mexico's historic lodgings offer their guests a genuinely regional experience and a taste of a unique way of life and blend of cultures. The history, folklore, and traditions related by the author breathe life into these old hostelries."--BOOK JACKET.
