Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Followers of the Trail
Mexico, you may catch glimpses now and again of the half oh literated road marks of the 'old Santa Fé Trail.
For nearly three hundred years this path over the terrible and alluring wilderness has been trod by white men, but no one can guess for how many centuries before the Spanish explorers first discovered it, how many generations of Red Men, Zuni, Apache, and Moki, Pueblos, cliff-dwellers and cave-dwellers, had passed that way before them. But from the first solitary wanderer who dared the unspeakable dangers of the en chanted desert, to the last cow-puncher who loped carelessly through the sage-bush and over the sand dunes that half hid the tracks of yesterday, no one I think who ever travelled that trail has been an ordinary, commonplace person, such as one would expect to meet jogging along most roads that you and I are familiar with.
