Mesilla Comes Alive: A History of Mesilla and Its Valley tells the story of one of the iconic towns of the old west, from the arrival of the Spanish in the XVI century to the granting of statehood to New Mexico in 1912. Written in short, entertaining, informative sections, and loaded with custom maps, archival photos and other illuminating illustrations, Mesilla Comes Alive provides a fascinating journey back in time and includes stories of such notable and colorful figures as Don Juan Onate, Santa Anna, Billy the Kid, Albert Fountain Pat Garrett, and many others. The book also puts forward several interesting theories that contradict the accepted history of the area, and includes two items -- a newly discovered photo of Billy the Kid and a short history of Mesilla written by Albert Fountain -- that have not previously appeared in any book. Mesilla Comes Alive breaks new ground while telling the story of a very old place. This description is for both the Black & White and color editions, but the color edition is only available through the estore: https: //www.createspace.com/5164710
