DOWNLOAD EBOOKYavapai County, Arizona, is regarded as the most historically significant area within the state. After Arizona was proclaimed an American territory by Pres. Abraham Lincoln in 1863, it was here that the first territorial government was established. Yavapai County history and culture is reflected in its simple but deeply reverent burial grounds where many of Arizona's early pioneers are buried. The county has many cemeteries, and this book focuses on the most historic of these, from Prescott to Southern Yavapai ghost towns, where people ranging from Big Nose Kate to Sharlot M. Hall are interred, and examines the Old West's attitudes toward death and burial.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBright, determined and focused Abby Taylor has not lost her sense of humor in spite of taking an indefinite leave of absence from her position as Professor of Anglo Saxon Studies at Vassar College due to Polycystic Kidney Disease. And she certainly doesn't go out looking for trouble any more than her attractive companion, Northern Arizona Forestry Professor David Neale does. But once again it finds them. And once again, Abby's beloved Corgi dog Francis will do all that he can to protect his humans. In the midst of the beautiful ranching country near Prescott, AZ, where their borrowed house is located, Abby and David, along with the faithful Francis, should be enjoying a pleasant break from daily cares and concerns. But alas, disturbing events begin unfolding left and right. Who would poison a Hereford Yearling? Who would shoot an innocent and much respected Basque sheepherder? And who would turn the highway going down from Mingus Mountain into a death trap? As they try to live their peaceful lives amidst the splendor of the high desert, it becomes evident that some questions must be answered if Abby, David, and Francis are going to stay alive... in Arizona.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCenturies ago, Williamson Valley Road began as a game trail for native inhabitants. In the 1400s, ancestors of the Yavapai and Hualapai hunted along ancient footpaths. Later explorers widened these paths for horses. The 1800s brought military wagons transporting supplies between the Rawlins, Hualapai/Tollgate, and Fort Whipple camps while traders and settlers followed in stagecoaches. The fertile lands of Mint Valley, Williamson Valley, and Walnut Creek were ideal for raising stock and produce. Farmers sailed from Europe and up the Colorado River before traversing the Hardyville Toll Road. Ranchers imported the fittest stock and exported the finest meat with the expertise of Mexican ranch hands. Camp Wood timbermen met the demand for lumber. Eastern store owners set up shop as railroaders laid far-reaching plans but short-reaching rails. Residents in the early 1900s arrived at rodeos, camp meetings, concerts, and dances in their Model Ts using this road. Present-day suburbanites, schoolchildren, and contractors commute on Williamson Valley Road, which was designated as a Scenic and Historic Route in 2010.
