Step inside the pages of "New Mexico Territorial Era Caricatures" and learn about the men who made New Mexico what it is. See their likenesses and read about them. Druggists, farmers, postmasters.

Governors, senators, land speculators, educators, military men, influential newspaper editors. They were true movers and shakers. What all these men in this book had in common was their love for New Mexico and their desire to make it better. Some of these men you thought you knew. Learn anew. Others you have never heard of. This book will make you wish you had. Discover hidden facets and see their likeness drawn at their height of their manhood by a master illustrator, Harry Samuel Palmer.
Autorenporträt
Ron Hamm had previously written only about men. Now he has attempted to address that oversight by exploring the contributions of women in his home state of New Mexico. In the process of researching this project he discovered far more notable New Mexico women than he originally imagined. Hamm began working life in high school as a journalist, then after a career in public relations and a stint in teaching, transitioned to writing biographies. He received a Bachelor's degree in Journalism from Florida State University, a Master's degree in English from Texas A&M University-Kingsville, a PhD in Higher Education Administration from Texas A&M University, and an honorary Master's degree in Business Administration from the "Escuela Internacional de Negocios de América Latina" in Mendoza, Argentina. He is also the author of "Ross Calvin, Interpreter of the American Southwest," "Tales from the Range: Stories from the Saddle," and "New Mexico Territorial Era Caricatures," all from Sunstone Press.
