We are excited to attend the Arizona History Convention in Tucson in September! Make sure to visit our table on Saturday, September 26, and browse our new and recent books.
The Arizona History Convention welcomes anyone interested in Arizona History to attend. Friday, September 25, at 4:30 p.m. is the welcome reception followed by keynote speaker Mark Santiago, former executive director of the New Mexico Farm & Ranch Heritage Museum and the New Mexico Museum of Space History. His presentation will examine the expansion of Spain’s colonial power or “revolution in the west,” juxtaposed with the American Revolution in the east. A mini-conference with twelve paper presenters and numerous poster exhibits will be held on Saturday. There will also be poster exhibits where researchers can share their work between sessions, with a $100 prize for the best poster. See the entire program here. Established in 1960, the Arizona History Convention offers a congenial venue for historical researchers to share the results of their labors with one another and the public. All events will take place at the Arizona Historical Society. Register for the convention here.
