Arizona, Vol. 1: Prehistoric Aboriginal, Pioneer Modern (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Arizona, Vol. 1: Prehistoric Aboriginal, Pioneer Modern, the Nation's Youngest Commonwealth Within a Land of Ancient CultureIn the progress of the work continually has been impressed upon the writer a feeling that Arizona is a land apart and unique. she has her own features of dual climates, of peculiar native flora and fauna, of contrasting wooded and snow-capped mountains, rising out of waterless, sage-colored, far-stretching plains, of deserts that become oases when torrential streams are checked all broadly at variance with Nature's manifestations in any other State of our Union. Indeed, it has been said that only in far-off Palestine are these condi tions in any wise duplicated.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
