Book excerpt: This is a book that explores finding God and life in the past , present and future along the Pecos River of southeastern New Mexico, a frontier region of the American West that earned a reputation for being wild, unexplored and rebellious (ala “there is no law west of the Pecos”) as it had been for thousands of years under Native-American, Spanish, Mexican and American control. It is a book that gives the reader a glimpse into the lives and struggles of living in this part of the “Land of Enchantment” or “Satan’s Paradise” as the New Mexico Territory was labeled.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Llano Estacado—dubbed by author Paul H. Carlson as “heaven’s harsh tableland”—covers some 48,000 square miles of western Texas and eastern New Mexico. In this new survey of the region, the story begins during prehistoric times and with descendants of the Comanche, Apache, and other Native American tribal groups. Other groups have also left their marks on the area: Spanish explorers, Comancheros and other traders, European settlers, farmers and ranchers, artists, and even athletes. Carlson, a veteran historian, aims to review “the Llano’s historic contours from its earliest foundations to its energetic present,” and in doing so, he skillfully narrates the story of the region up to the present time of modern agribusiness and urbanization. Throughout the ten chronologically arranged chapters, concise sidebars support the narrative, highlighting important and interesting topics such as the enigmatic origins of the region’s name, fascinating geological and paleontological facts, the arrival of humans, the natural history of bison, colorful “characters” in the history of the region, and many others. The resulting broad synthesis captures the entirety of the Llano Estacado, summarizing and interpreting its natural and human history in a single, carefully researched and clearly written volume. Heaven’s Harsh Tableland: A New History of the Llano Estacado will provide a helpful, enjoyable, and authoritative guide to the history and development of this important region.
