Yuma Arizona History - The Lenon Family - Mining and Mapping
Posted by: THAT Painter Lady in Books, Yuma HistoryIt Seems Like Only Yesterday : Mining and Mapping in Arizona’s First Century Vol 1: The Yuma Years.
Author : Robert Lenon
A biography always has a way of including many other local histories, events and names. Though not always historically correct, and some names may have been changed to protect the ???, this book is a great read. If you are interested in Yuma or Southwest history, add this to your collection.
This book also has lots of reference to traveling, automobiles and local (Yuma) towns. This book is not an emotional epic, but mostly meat and potatoes. Very informative with a few vivid moments.
Don’t forget the new Yuma Mesa Homesteaders book was realeased this year!
