Book Synopsis Baseball in Territorial Arizona by : John Darrin Tenney
Download or read book Baseball in Territorial Arizona written by John Darrin Tenney and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2016-03-14 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Arizona Territory is known for saloons, gunfights, outlaws and strong women. But the history of baseball in Arizona is long forgotten. The national pastime came first to the territory's many military posts and soon gained a foothold in early towns such as Tucson, Prescott, Tombstone and Phoenix. Gaining popularity in the 1880s, the game spread through the territory with the help of railroads. Soon company nines were competing against town clubs. In the early 1900s, the major leagues made several tours through Arizona. This book takes a first-ever look into Arizona's rich baseball history, with never before seen photographs of the earliest baseball clubs and games.

Download or read book A.t. 1907 written by Joseph R. Warren and published by Publishamerica Incorporated. This book was released on 2007-04 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its territorial status in 1863 through to its admission as a state in 1912, Arizona was a frontier with vastly different characteristics from what had preceded settlers in the east. Rugged, desolate, sometimes parched, jagged, difficult, and dangerous, it would have been best left to its first people, the Hualapai Indians, had it not been for the immense wealth below its soil. This drama unfolds in 1907, a time of powerful change in the Arizona Territory as the influences of the past finally give way to the emerging world of the 20th century, leaving the last vestige of the Frontier to slip uniquely into American history. Based on historic accounts of an Arizona Ranger, James Warren, and of a Hualapai shaman, TaThamicheaor Wallapai Jack as he was called by the Whitesawhat begins as an uneventful prisoner escort from Kingman to Wickenburg, A.T., culminates in a reckoning.

Since the book’s first publication, significant constitutional changes have occurred, some even altering the very structure of state government itself. There have been dramatic veto battles, protracted budget wars, and other interbranch conflicts that have generated landmark constitutional rulings from the state courts.

A total of 63 propositions have reached the ballot, spawning heated controversies over same-sex marriage, immigration, and other hot-button social issues. This book is the definitive guide to Arizona government and serves as a solid introductory text for classes on the Arizona Constitution. Extensive endnotes make it a useful reference for professionals within the government. Finally, it serves as a tool for any engaged citizen looking for information about online government resources, administrative rules, and voter rights. Comprehensive and clearly written, this book belongs on every Arizonan’s bookshelf.

Book Synopsis With Their Own Blood by : Virginia Roberts
Download or read book With Their Own Blood written by Virginia Roberts and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2013-05-31 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: His wife dead, Elisa Green Pennington gathered up his brood of twelve young children in 1857 and left Texas for California, the promised land. The Penningtons could not have imagined what the untamed frontier had in store for them. After a difficult trek across West Texas and New Mexico, they were forced by sicknesses and circumstances to settle in the newly claimed Gadsden Purchase - present-day southern Arizona - where members of the clan and their descendants would remain into Arizona's statehood years. At the heart of this saga is Larcena Pennington Page Scott, who is witness as her loved ones are killed and her family's livelihood and property stolen. Larcena lived well into the twentieth century to tell the story of her captivity by Apaches and her miraculous escape from the captors, of outlawry and murder along the Mexican border, of disease, hunger, and isolation, and of the unceasing depredations by hostile Apaches during the 1860s and '70s. Using family letters, papers, and primary documents from all over the Southwest, Virginia Culin Roberts traces the lives of Larcena and her family. Roberts presents a real-life story of the rigors of surviving in a hostile and unforgiving land, transcending family history to provide a framework for telling the tale of the western frontier in the bloody Civil War and antebellum years.
