New Mexico A Photographic Tribute

Celebrating the colorful legacy of both New Mexico's first 100 yearsof statehood, this book is a stunning celebration of this Southwestern state's scenic wonders--and the first and only such book timed for its centennial in early 2012 .Remarkable color photographs feature the timeless vistas, majestic landmarks, and cultural icons the Land of Enchantment is known for worldwide--as well as never-before-seen portraits of the state's luminous landscapes and hidden gems. John Annerino casts an artist's, adventurer's, and scholar's perspective on renowned international destinations he knows intimately. He weaves each New Mexico's natural history, legends, and storied human history into evocative introductory essays.
