This is a historical account of the first 50 years of Camp Verde, Arizona. The history includes nearly all of the Verde Valley. Camp Verde is the oldest settlement in the Verde Valley, and the Sutler’s store was the first commercial building. Those who came here after the store was built used the Sutler’s store for their Post Office, grocery store, information source, and general gathering spot. While efforts were pointed at the Camp Verde story, many who directly affected the town’s development lived in the surrounding areas. These areas are now called Cottonwood, Rimrock, McGuireville, and areas adjacent to Camp Verde. The account begins in 1865 going until 1915 with complete references to places and people.
Every picture tells a story, you be the judge.

I cannot make this up if I had to, I am merely reading the signs and speaking truth to power. Kindle E Book

From a bizarre and raucous weekend jaunt along the Mexican border spinning out in Nogales and ending to the west above the Pacific’s blue and tranquil waters below Tijuana, Eric Lange’s present to his son Steve for his 21st birthday establishes an unusually close bond between the two men. But upon their return home to Prescott, Arizona, Eric decides to change his career track as a machinist and moves to the Verde Valley on “the other side of the mountain” to sell the weed he will mostly cultivate at his isolated garden in Sycamore Canyon.
The second of Northern Arizona's major ethnic groups, the Native Americans primarily of the
Hopi and Navajo Indian tribes, are the focus of this second novel of Will Michelet's "Norzona Quartet."
This novel revolves around the intersecting lives of its three principal characters: Paul Tse, born of a Hopi
mother and a Navajo father in Tuba City near the border of the Reservations for those two tribes north
of Flagstaff; Gloria, his wife and a member of the Tohono O'odham Tribe near Tucson, whom he met
while a student at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff.; and Paul's contemporary and friend Wayne
Lomaheftewa who, though without a college degree, becomes a charismatic religious leader across the
Hopi Reservation.
The Southwest of the US was till the mid-19th century territory of Mexico, so it is not surprising that its population today is still substantially people of Mexican origin. In perhaps the most scenic part of this beautiful region, the high country of contemporary Northern Arizona has often been built and preserved by its Mexican-Americans, whose native language Spanish lives on in its street signs, place names, and person and business appellations.
