Forgotten Frontiers

This ex-library copy of "Forgotten Frontiers" shows signs of wear typical of library circulation. The blue cloth cover has some fraying at the corners and spine ends, but the binding remains strong. There is no dust jacket. Library markings and labels are present, but the text is clean and unmarked.

"Forgotten Frontiers" by Alfred Barnaby Thomas, published by the University of Oklahoma Press in Norman, is a significant historical work that delves into the Spanish Indian policy of Don Juan Bautista de Anza, Governor of New Mexico from 1777 to 1787. This second printing edition, released in November 1969, offers a detailed study based on original documents from the archives of Spain, Mexico, and New Mexico. Thomas, a noted historian, provides an in-depth analysis of the complexities and nuances of Spanish colonial policy. This edition is particularly valuable for historians and collectors interested in Spanish colonial history and the governance of New Mexico. The book is an ex-library copy, lacking a dust jacket, but remains a vital source for understanding this period. Its condition reflects typical library usage but retains structural integrity.
