520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
Summary, etc | From bookjacket: "The Reverend Taylor F. Ealy was a Presbyterian medical missionary--trained to preach, teach, and heal the sick. Sent from Pennsylvania with his tireless wife Mary and their two children, he arrived in Lincoln, New Mexico, in February 1878, just one day after the killing of John H. Tunstall had touched off the Lincoln Country War. Amid the violence and turmoil besetting the town, the Ealys tried to bring a sense of community by opening the first school and holding regularly scheduled religious services. Within six months, though, they fled the violence in Lincoln and took refuge with the U.S. Army. The Ealys were sent next to the pueblo of Zuni, a far more peaceful place, at least on the surface. While the Zuni people were friendly toward the missionaries, they recognized that the Ealys' work represented a threat to the pueblo's centuries-old culture. Another resident of the pueblo was Frank Cushing, who was there on assignment for the Bureau of Ethnology and became a sympathetic supporter of all that was traditional in Zuni life. The Ealys recorded their experiences and impressions of these demanding conditions in diary entries, letters to colleagues and relatives, and extensive recollections. The editor has formed a compelling narrative from these materials and has provided comprehensive notes and numerous photographs of the people and places mentioned. The result is a personal, day-to-day glimpse of the last, violent years of the frontier; an intimate appreciation of the reality of cultures in conflict; and a remarkable picture of perhaps the most important agent of Manifest Destiny--the Protestant missionary and his wife." |
