  • Basque Capital and the Settlement of the Southwestern United States
    Basque Capital and the Settlement of the Southwestern United States By Stephen T. Bass Introduction The role of the Basques in the exploration and settlement of the Americas is receiving new attention from historians and scholars. Research in the last forty years has correctly re-identified many of the individuals who came to the New World from Spain during the Age of Exploration as Basques, rather than Spaniards. While it is true that the great majority of these Basques were from what is now the Spanish side of the Pyrenees Mountains, they were and are a physiologically and culturally different race than the other Iberians. These early Basques formed a close-knit minority of aggressive, successful seamen, explorers, missionaries, settlers, frontiersmen, businessmen and administrators whose numbers of accomplishments far outweighed the size of their population. Beginning with Columbus’ voyages, Basques were an important and necessary part of Spain’s quest to colonize the New World. They built and manned many of the ships used between Spain and the Americas and led or participated in many of the expeditions of exploration, conquest and settlement throughout Nueva España. Basques were also heavily involved in the provisioning of the new settlements and in maintaining the commercial trade necessary to keep supply lines open and flourishing between Europe and North and South America. While hard working, the great majority of these immigrant Basques were not wealthy. Indeed, most came to the New World searching for new opportunities. Some aggressively took advantage of the unique situations presented to them to greatly increase their financial worth.

  • Spanish Relations with the Apache Nations East of the Rio Grande
    SPANISH RELATIONS WITH THE APACHE NATIONS EAST OF THE RIO GRANDE Jeffrey D. Carlisle, B.S., M.A. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2001 APPROVED: Donald Chipman, Major Professor William Kamman, Committee Member Richard Lowe, Committee Member Marilyn Morris, Committee Member F. Todd Smith, Committee Member Andy Schoolmaster, Committee Member Richard Golden, Chair of the Department of History C. Neal Tate, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Carlisle, Jeffrey D., Spanish Relations with the Apache Nations East of the Río Grande. Doctor of Philosophy (History), May 2001, 391 pp., bibliography, 206 titles. This dissertation is a study of the Eastern Apache nations and their struggle to survive with their culture intact against numerous enemies intent on destroying them. It is a synthesis of published secondary and primary materials, supported with archival materials, primarily from the Béxar Archives. The Apaches living on the plains have suffered from a lack of a good comprehensive study, even though they played an important role in hindering Spanish expansion in the American Southwest. When the Spanish first encountered the Apaches they were living peacefully on the plains, although they occasionally raided nearby tribes. When the Spanish began settling in the Southwest they changed the dynamics of the region by introducing horses. The Apaches quickly adopted the animals into their culture and used them to dominate their neighbors. Apache power declined in the eighteenth century when their Caddoan enemies acquired guns from the French, and the powerful Comanches gained access to horses and began invading northern Apache territory.

The new book "Wyatt Earp—Frontier Marshall," by Stuart N. Lake, is the most satisfactory story of the old West that has been pub- lished. The biography of this famous peace officer is presented in a vivid, but sincere and dignified manner, and includes a wealth of most valuable, as well as entertaining information regarding general condi- tions associated with the development of the frontier—particularly in that period when the picturesque buffalo hunters held sway over the vast plans of the middle-wist. I knew Wyatt Earp for nearly a half-century—from 1880 until his death in 1929. I visited him frequently during his final illness, and spoke to him the night before he died. As a last expression of friend- ship, I was permitted to serve as one of his pall-bearers. I know the very trying conditions under which Wyatt was called upon to uphold the law in and about Tombstone. Situations demanded a quick, keen brain, unerring judgment, nerves of steel and absolute fearlessness—a test for the best. Wyatt Earp met these tests with equanimity. Wyatt never feared anyone who would face him in the open. I have often said that one of our greatest assets in the peaceful enforcement of law and order in Tombstone was the personality of Wyatt Earp.

This distinguished Sonoran was born in Fronteras in 1735. His father was I Captain of the Presidio of Fronteras and Provisional Governor of the State of I Sonora.

  • Fact Sheet | the Establishment of El Presidio
    Fact Sheet | The Establishment of El Presidio Prior to the arrival of the Spanish colonists, the indigenous population of the bay shores and coastal valleys was estimated between 15,000 and 20,000 people divided into around 55 tribes who spoke 5 mutually unintelligible languages. In the Presidio region of the Bay Area, the indigenous tribes of the Ohlone/Costanoan called the Presidio home, with archeological evidence of their inhabitance dating back to 740 A.D. In the late eighteenth century, Spanish occupied Mexico deployed Juan Bautista de Anza, one of the leading western path-finders, to explore and colonize Northern California. After establishing an overland route from Mexican-state of Sonoro to Northern California in 1774, Anza was commissioned by the Spanish to return to California and establish a permanent settlement— with a mission and a presidio—along the pacific coast of the San Francisco Bay. From September 1775 to June 1776, Juan Bautista de Anza led 240 colonists on a land expedition from Sonora and Sinaloa (in modern Mexico) to settle in the San Francisco Bay. On June 27, 1776, Anza arrived in San Francisco with his band of colonists, including Mexican soldiers, their wives and children, families of settlers, muleteers and cattle-drivers conducting the king’s cattle and a procession of mules. Of the original party, 191 eventually settled in San Francisco with the remainder settling in Monterey. Anza and his colonists achieved the venture of Anza Expedition, eventually establishing the new military garrison of “El Presidio,” and the Franciscan Mission San Francisco de Assisi (Mission Dolores).

  • Cultural Routes and Heritage Trails 21
    2 Cultural Routes and Heritage Trails Introduction This chapter commences an examination of the component parts of the conceptual model introduced in Chapter 1. The focus of the chapter is the supply side of routes and trails, and in this case cultural routes and heritage trails, probably the most popular type of tourist trail. In short, these are organized ways for cycling, walking, driving or riding that draw on the cultural heritage of a region and provide learning experiences and visitor enjoyment. They are marked on the ground with signs or other interpretive media and on maps that help guide visitors along their course (MacLeod, 2004). Heritage routes and trails tend to be most prevalent in areas with already high levels of tourism and, while there are many heritage trails in the less-developed parts of Africa, Latin America and Asia (e.g. the Slave Route, the Inca Trail and the Silk Road), their preponderance tends to be in the developed parts of the world, particularly in North America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Japan. As a result, and given the availability of information and data, the majority of trails mentioned in this chapter are from the developed world. Where available, information is also presented about examples from less-developed regions. This emphasis on more affluent countries does not imply that these types of routes and trails do not exist elsewhere, or that other places are less important. It simply reflects a greater abundance of information and empirical examples. There are literally thousands of cultural heritage-based routes in all parts of the world.
