Dobie, J. Frank (James Frank), 1888-1964

"Guide to Life and Literature of the Southwest, with a Few Observations"

_Your Mexican Holiday_, revised 1947. No
writer on modern Mexico has a clearer eye or clearer intellect
than Anita Brenner; she maintains good humor in her realism
and never lapses into phony romance.
CABEZA DE VACA'S _Narrative_. Any translation procurable. One
is included in _Spanish Explorers in the Southern United
States_, edited by F. W. Hodge and T. H. Lewis, now published
by Barnes & Noble, New York.
The most dramatic and important aftermath of Cabeza de Vaca's
twisted walk across the continent was Coronado's search for
the Seven Cities of Cibola. Coronado's precursor was Fray
Marcos de Niza. _The Journey of Fray Marcos de Niza_, by Cleve
Hallenbeck, with illustrations and decorations by Jose
Cisneros, is one of the most beautiful books in format
published in America. It was designed and printed by Carl
Hertzog of El Paso, printer without peer between the Atlantic
and the Pacific, and is issued by Southern Methodist
University Press, Dallas.
CASTAnEDA'S narrative of Coronado's expedition. Winship's
translation is preferred. It is included in _Spanish Explorers
in the Southern United States_, cited above.
