Tom Tobin
frontiersman
by Perkins, James E.
A wonderfully researched history of a southwest frontiersman before, during, and after the U.S. taking of present day New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, and California from Mexico (1846). Tobin, being one of the few Americans in the area -- before the U.S. conquest -- was involved in nearly every event that occured in the area. And, invarably, events were violent and bloody. Start reading this book, and you won't be able to put it down! It's probably the best record available of the early southwest during the period 1843 - 1900. But, caution! some parts are not for the squemish, or for the "politically correct."
