Turquoise and Six-GunsThe rock ribbed hills surrounding Cerrillos, New Mexico, are honeycombed with mineshafts and it is these mines that have shaped the history of the town and of the district over which it presides. The Pueblo Indians for untold ages took out turquoise; the Spaniards in their turn found gold, silver and lead; and finally, the Anglo Americans exploited all of these in addition to copper, zinc and coal. Mining gave life to Cerrillos and to neighboring
The rock-ribbed hills surrounding Cerrillos, New Mexico, are honeycombed with mineshafts and it is these mines that have shaped the history of the town and of the district over which it presides. The Pueblo Indians for untold ages took out turquoise; the Spaniards in their turn found gold, silver and lead; and finally, the Anglo-Americans exploited all of these in addition to copper, zinc and coal. Mining gave life to Cerrillos and to neighboring towns such as Bonanza City, Carbonateville, Waldo and Madrid. And when the boom passed and the mines closed, that life ebbed away. Scattered over the hills and in the valleys everywhere are skeletal remains of mining activity: deserted buildings, black and foreboding entrances to shafts, broken tools and equipment, fallen timbers from the windlasses, gallows and hoist houses, tailing dumps and slag heaps. These offer silent testimony to the once prosperous past of the Cerrillos mining district and are an appeal for all students of history. MARC SIMMONS, the prominent author and historian, has received many awards for his research and writings on the American Southwest. He is known for his ability to record little-known episodes in New Mexico history and is also the author of NEW MEXICO MAVERICKS and YESTERDAY IN SANTA FE, both from Sunstone Press.Binding Type: Paperback

Nice and sleek
Color: Rustic Brown and Black
I’m really happy with the bookshelves overall, I only wish they had taller ones available. It was very quick and easy to put together and they have held up well so far. They look great for the price and I especially like that they have a small footprint when it comes to how much room they take up.

Nice, sturdy and easy to assemble.
Color: Rustic Brown and Black, Color: Rustic Brown and Black
Worked great for our small apartment. We needed something to fit over our heater baseboard and this worked! However, we had to swap the bottoms and top side rods to fit this way, meaning instead of using the 6” rods at the bottom we put them on top and used the 12” at bottom to clear over the baseboards. Easy to assemble and matched our other larger wall shelf perfectly.

Perfect for our living room, would buy again!
Color: Rustic Brown and Black, Color: Rustic Brown and Black
We couldn’t add built ins because of our vents so went with theses instead and they were exactly what we needed! Very durable, sturdy, and a great height! Bought one first then decided we wanted another! They look great for decorations plus for our babies toys! Comes with everything you need, drywall screws and all. Would buy another if I need it in the future!
