A New Mexico David and Other Stories and Sketches of the Southwest is a collection of short stories and sketches written by Charles F. Lummis. The book takes the reader on a journey through the American Southwest, exploring the landscape, people, and culture of New Mexico and other neighboring states. The stories are vivid, colorful, and often humorous, offering a unique perspective on life in the Southwest during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Lummis, a journalist and historian, was deeply passionate about the region and its people, and his writing reflects this love and admiration. The book is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history, culture, and literature of the American Southwest.1891. Charles F. Lummis was a native New-Englander and a graduate of Harvard. Some fifty years ago he walked to California, lived for years in an Indian Pueblo, rode the Southwest from side to side and explored it with a keen and understanding heart. He founded The Landmarks Club, the Southwest Museum, and the Sequoya League, and was knighted by the King of Spain for his researches in Spanish-American history. Americanist, author, and explorer, his contribution to the Southwest has been significant.
