This jewel among nineteenth century diaries offers a fresh look on mid-nineteenth century life in territorial Santa Fe. Teenage John Watts, homesick for his family in Indiana, occupies his time in 1859 by keeping a journal. John chronicles the daily activities of the people he meets - everyone from the Territorial Governor to the boys playing ball in the alley beside the Baptist Church.
