Book Recommendation — “Arizona: A History”
For an informative history of Arizona—as well as a fascinating glimpse into how one’s view of history is shaped when seen primarily through a veil of race and racism—check out Arizona: A History by Thomas E. Sheridan (University of Arizona Press, 1995). Although the author’s liberal leanings are apparent throughout the text, it is an enjoyable and entertaining read even for those of us on the far right of the aisle. You will definitely come away with a new perspective of the state.

Ha! “& I helped!”…sorry about that, but this was the text we were supposed to read for my AZ History/Constitution class for my AZ teaching certification. 🙁 go figure! I know why our instructor for the weekend barely if ever referred to it! (he was GOOD & not on the side of the author). I thought you might find it interesting though…and you did. Now we can donate it, huh?
