In this detailed portrayal, Bettina O'Neil Lyons delves into family documents, archival records, and published sources to chronicle 130 years of mercantile enterprise through the eyes of a remarkable group of men and women who lay the business foundations and set the social tone of Arizona and New Mexico for much of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries."
