The American Southwest Resource Book:
The People and the Culture
A Resource Book for Teachers and Students
by Jane Kurtz
All her life, Jane has been fascinated by stories. Many of the books
she has published are based in imagination and, though they may have
real events or people woven in, are classified as fiction. But she is
also fascinated with the true stories of people's lives.
In The American Southwest Resource Book,
Jane has collected true stories. These are stories that take place in
Texas, Arizona, Oklahoma, and New Mexico and sometimes touch the
histories of other states as well. Along with the stories -- written
for students to read, Jane has collected activities, books for students
to read, books for teachers to refer to, and other background
information for teachers. She hopes the reader's curiosity will be
sparked enough to learn more about the people whose fascination lives
are sprinkled through these pages.
