Rezension
»A reader looking for a cultural study of the Mesilla will be greatly rewarded by Kathkes effort.«
»Kathkes focus on issues of cultural amalgamation, law, and government action in the Mesilla makes for a highly useful study if not for readers primarily concerned with the history of technology for those interested in the American Southwest, borderlands studies, and U.S. colonialism.«
