Wagon Tracks (SFTA Newsletter) Index (Chronological) Frank Norris, NPS, January 2011 Wagon Tracks (SFTA Newsletter) Index (chronological) Frank Norris, NPS, January 2011 Note to the prospective user: The following is a compilation of selected articles from Wagon Tracks, which is the quarterly publication of the Santa Fe Trail Association (which was called the Santa Fe Council during its first year of operation). As of this date, the entire 24-year-plus run of this newsletter has been edited by Leo Oliva. Mr. Oliva has been responsible for not only editing this newsletter but for encouraging the placement of material into the newsletter. He has made numerous research trips – to visit either people or institutions – that have resulted in trail-related articles, diaries, reminiscences, etc. He has written a large number of the books that have been reviewed in Wagon Tracks. And he has written a number of historical articles in the newsletter, and has also written prefatory comments for numerous additional contributions. This compilation will not please everybody. Its primary focus is the indexing of historical information about the trail. Therefore, it lists all research articles that detail the trail’s history (including diaries and trail reminiscences), and it also records information (often from the “Council Trove” section of the newsletter) from contemporary newspaper articles describing life and incidents along the trail. It similarly records the various reviews of books, articles, and symposium proceedings about the trail. It does not generally show articles and news items detailing the association itself (about SFTA officers, elections, chapter activities, upcoming symposia, recent trail-marking efforts, etc.), nor does it list poetry or educational/teaching material. It does, however, list articles showing the role of Congress in establishing the trail and the subsequent role of the National Park Service (with the comprehensive management plan, Challenge Cost Share Program activities, the advisory council, etc.). It also records articles that pertain to marker compilations (primarily DAR markers), and the discovery or recording of a more accurate trail route or new trail ruts, plus items pertaining to other nationally-significant trails (Smoky Hill, El Camino Real, Coronado, etc.). Most news articles describing trail museums and visits/tours to historical sites are not included, but such articles are included if they are fairly comprehensive (as in the compendium of 28 museums/historical sites noted in volumes 1-8) or if such articles contain detailed trail history. Acronyms: for the sake of brevity, I have used a number of acronyms, including the following: * br = book review(s) * states are often referred to by their two-letter abbreviations: KS for Kansas, MO for Missouri, etc. * shorthand terms are used as follows: annot=annotation, appx=approximate, archeo=archeology, art=article, cmte=committee, estab’d=established, facs=facsimile, hist=history, newsp=newspaper, prof=professor, re:=regarding, etc. * NPS = National Park Service * NRHP = National Register of Historic Places * PNTS = Partnership for the National Trails System * SFT = Santa Fe Trail * SFNHT = Santa Fe National Historic Trail * WT = Wagon Tracks (newsletter) * a combination letter and number refers to articles that are part of a larger series. Specifically, M1, M2, etc. refers to various articles in a 16-part series (in vols. 1-8) about merchants on the trail, and MHS1, MHS2, etc. refers to a 28-part series (also in vols. 1-8) about museums and historical societies on the trail. * the slash (/) refers to other Wagon Tracks issues: 4/3, 17, for example, refers to volume 4, issue 3, page 17. Each volume contains four issues: November, February, May, and August. The years of the various Wagon Tracks volumes are as follows: Vol. 1 = 1986-87 Vol. 6 = 1991-92 Vol. 11 = 1996-97 Vol. 16 = 2001-02 Vol. 21 = 2006-07 Vol. 2 = 1987-88 Vol. 7 = 1992-93 Vol. 12 = 1997-98 Vol. 17 = 2002-03 Vol. 22 = 2007-08 Vol. 3 = 1988-89 Vol. 8 = 1993-94 Vol. 13 = 1998-99 Vol. 18 = 2003-04 Vol. 23 = 2008-09 Vol. 4 = 1989-90 Vol. 9 = 1994-95 Vol. 14 = 1999-2000 Vol. 19 = 2004-05 Vol. 24 = 2009-10 Vol. 5 = 1990-91 Vol. 10 = 1995-96 Vol. 15 = 2000-01 Vol. 20 = 2005-06 Vol. 25 = 2010-11 The contents of the index are as follows: I.

The guides identify the focus standards by quarter. Teachers should understand that the focus standards emphasize deep instruction for that timeframe. However, because a certain quarter does not address specific standards, it should be understood that previously taught standards should be reinforced while working on the focus standards for any designated quarter. Some standards will recur across all quarters due to their importance and need to be addressed on an ongoing basis. The Standards are not intended to be a check-list of knowledge and skills but should be used as an integrated model of literacy instruction to meet end of year expectations. The Social Studies CCSS pacing guides contain the following elements: • Strand: Identify the type of standard • Standard Band: Identify the sub-category of a set of standards. • Benchmark: Identify the grade level of the intended standards • Grade Specific Standard: Each grade-specific standard (as these standards are collectively referred to) corresponds to the same-numbered CCR anchor standard. Put another way, each CCR anchor standard has an accompanying grade-specific standard translating the broader CCR statement into grade- appropriate end-of-year expectations.

  • THE HOWLING DAWG Recapping the Events of AUGUST 2017
    THE HOWLING DAWG Recapping the events of AUGUST 2017 “Defiant, still” 16th Georgia Volunteer Infantry Regiment, Company G "The Jackson Rifles" THE WAR IN THE FAR WEST Re-enactment of The Battle of Picacho Pass (Arizona) Recently I heard someone mention The Battle of Picacho Pass (Arizona) as being the most western part of North America that War Between the States fighting occurred. I was surprised even though I knew Washington State furnished a Union Regiment as did Nebraska, Colorado, Dakota and the Oklahoma Territory. Often the Union cavalry forces that John S. Mosby fought against in Virginia hailed from California. I had always thought that The Battle of Glorieta Pass, fought from March 26– 28, 1862, in the northern New Mexico Territory was the far western reaches of hostility. I looked up The Battle of Picacho Pass and learned that the April 15, 1862 action occurred around Picacho Peak, 50 miles northwest of Tucson, Arizona. It was fought between a Union cavalry patrol from California and a party of Confederate pickets from Tucson. After a Confederate force of about 120 cavalrymen arrived at Tucson from Texas on February 28, 1862, they proclaimed Tucson the capital of the western district of the Confederate Arizona Territory, which comprised what is now southern Arizona and southern New Mexico. Mesilla, near Las Cruces, was declared the territorial capital and seat of the eastern district of the territory. The property of Tucson Unionists was confiscated and they were jailed or driven out of town. Confederates hoped a flood of sympathizers in southern California would join them and give the Confederacy an outlet on the Pacific Ocean, but this never happened.

  • The Other Side of the Picture”: Social History, Popular Culture, and the Idea of the Sand Creek Massacre
    ABSTRACT Title of thesis: “THE OTHER SIDE OF THE PICTURE”: SOCIAL HISTORY, POPULAR CULTURE, AND THE IDEA OF THE SAND CREEK MASSACRE Kerry Tanner, Master of Arts, 2015 Thesis directed by: Associate Professor Richard Bell. Department of History. Competing schools of thought regarding American imperialism, American constructions of race, Native American experiences, and white settlers’ place within the American West can be seen in non-fiction and fictional accounts of the 1864 Sand Creek massacre in what is now eastern Colorado. Due to a range of factors including the emergence of social history methodology and Cold War politics, a shift in both American historiography and fictional representations of Native Americans and the West can be observed in certain scholarly works and Western films and novels during the period 1945-1970. Debates over the meaning of Sand Creek, often inspired by film representations, also reveal Coloradans’ and Americans’ attempts to reckon with shameful and embarrassing events of the past by contesting notions of race and imperialism presented by Western fiction. “The other side of the picture”: Social History, Popular Culture, and the Idea of the Sand Creek Massacre by Kerry Tanner Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland, College Park in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts 2015 Advisory Committee: Professor Richard Bell, Chair Professor Saverio Giovacchini Professor Colleen Woods ©Copyright by Kerry Tanner 2015 Acknowledgements I could not have completed this work without the generous assistance and support of a number of people.

I had a working knowledge of the Civil War thanks to Ken Burn's The Civil War on PBS. As I saw Union and Confederate soldiers in the far removed west during the movie I looked at my father and stated that this wasn't true. He assured me that it was in fact true and that there had been a campaign fought in the New Mexican Territory during the Civil War. As he went on to describe the events I was instantly captivated.
