In The Land Of Extremes Classic Reprint

Excerpt from In the Land of Extremes The author of this work simply wishes to give to the public a truer idea of life as it is to-day, in her country; wishes to correct false impressions which the recent writings of certain well-known knights of the quill have planted in the minds of the people concerning Arizona. No doubt some of these stories have been true of a past period, but even such portray only camp, ranch or mining life, and this is by no means the whole of life in my country. Arizona has well been called a lotus land of charm. Those who have lived or visited within her borders have felt this charm, but few have been able to express or analyze it. This charm is something vague, elusive, mystic. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
