Présentation de l'éditeur
Authors are surely born and not made. The born writer feels the love of the pen stirring within his being during the days of childhood; with the pen he finds the one mode of expression which satisfies his inner being and soul. Such is the writers excuse for presenting the following pages. The author of this work simply wishes to give to the public a truer idea of life as it is to-day, in her country; wishes to correct false impressions which the recent writings of certain well-known knights of the quill have planted in the minds of the people concerning A rizona. No doubt some of these stories have been true of a past period, but even such portray only camp, ranch or mining life, and this is by no means the whole of life in my country. Arizona has well been called a lotus land of charm. Those who have lived or visited within her borders have felt this charm, but few have been able to express or analyze it. This charm is something vague, elusive, mystic. Arizona is utterly different from any other part of the United States.
