Viewing the American West as a Chicana in China
In both scholarly work and popular imagination, the American West is the final destination of migrant from Europe and Mexico. The stories of those migrants, however, obscure the first migration (12,000 BP) from Asia into North America. That migration across the now-submerged land bridge of Beringia ended humanity's millennia-long journey across the globe that originated in Africa more than 50,000 years earlier. Using two examples, this essay refl…
Mark Kanazawa. Golden Rules: The Origins of California Water Law in the Gold Rush
Mark Kanazawa has produced an extremely thorough economic analysis of how water rights developed in California in the period between the Gold Rush and the end of the Civil War. Golden Rules: The Origins of California Water Law in the Gold Rush is divided into roughly three periods of development from legal anarchy to a fully developed legal regime that allocated water rights in an orderly fashion. Kanazawa argues that by the time the war ended an…

Latino History: An Interchange on Present Realities and Future Prospects
In her 2006 Organization of American Historians (oah) presidential address, Vicki Ruiz invoked José Martí's landmark 1891 essay “Nuestra América” in calling for a more comprehensive, transhemispheric vision of the U.S. past, one that understands “Latino history as United States history.” For more than four decades, scholars have written about U.S. Latina and Latino experiences, often under the rubric of Mexican American or Chicano, Puerto Rican, …

Translating Property: The Maxwell Land Grant and the Conflict over Land in the American West, 1840-1900
Although Mexico lost its northern territories to the United States in 1848, battles over property rights and ownership have remained intense. This turbulent, vividly narrated story of the Maxwell Land Grant, a single tract of 1.7 million acres in northeastern New Mexico, shows how contending groups reinterpret the meaning of property to uphold their conflicting claims to land. The Southwest has been and continues to be the scene of a collision be…
