BOOKS/Magazines ABOUT
MAGDALENA Most available at Emporium 404; some at The Marketplace and Route 60
Trading Post. Soon all at the Magdalena Public Library
" Celebrating 100
Years of Frontier Living Magdalena NM 1884-1984 Trails End" Old
photographs, art work. Man "old timers" contributed their stories and
pictures. Chapters include: Magdalena before 1884; Magdalena Marshalls [sic];
Rodeo, Forest Service, Mining and the Miners; Hispanic Magdalena; Sheep
Ranching and the Wool Market; Magdalena Stock Driveway.
"Cowboy Spur Maker From True West:" Tom Kelly with Jane Pattie. Valuable
to scholars, novelists, and the rest of us who relish Old West history... From
Buffalo Bill Historical Society> "Crisp writing with understatement and
humor captures the essence of the oral tradition and the cowboy way of
'spinning a yard. A believable human portrait." This book could be
described as two autobiographies without stretching the term too far. Better
yet, as a form of oral history. It is about Ed Blanchard, turned spurmaker after a wild, reckless life as a cowboy, as known
by Tom Kelly, his cousin. Mr. Kelly is an "old timer" here in
Magdalena NM who still ranches.
"Heaven is Under our
Feet" by local resident Sonja Stalnaker.
"Many of the poems and photographs in my book were inspired by and taken
in the Magdalena area." Signed copies soon to be available at Emporium 404
and at the Library
The Kelly Cookbook. By the Editors from the book: "In 1911 the Ladies Aid
Society of Kelly published a cookbook with the help of twenty-five advertisers
and Sherman & Edwards Printers of Magdalena. There is no record of what the
money was used for but most likely to help some miners
family. In 1981 the cookbook is being republished. Christina MacTavish
Blackburn has given permission for her mother's copy to be reprinted. Karo Syrup, the only original advertiser still in business,
has helped with publishing costs. Profits from the cookbook will help maintain
and improve the Magdalena Senior Citizens Program. Over the years Kelly has
contributed a great deal to the Magdalena area: families, building materials,
money and a plenitude of stories. Now the Kelly Ladies Aid Society reaches
across 70 years to continue to enrich the community." The full-page Karo ad on the inside back cover has the Karo Fudge recipe in it. Three black and white drawings of
the Kelly Mine area.
"Old Magdalena Cow
Town" by late resident Langford Ryan Johnston
"Querencia
is one of 15 books" by Steve Bodio, local
author. "Hounds of Heaven" is set in Magdalena
with a trip to Asia in the middle. "Edge of the Wild" is half about
Magdalena. "A Rage for Falcons" and "Eternity of Eagles" some.
"Querencia," from the Spanish term
meaning “the heart’s true home," captivates and settles the heart. An
astonishing read for those looking for an escape from the hustle of the big
city or seeking to find solitude in the country life. Steve wandered here in
the 1970s with a woman companion and never left. They led a simple life of
hunting, falconry, and became acquainted with the local reptiles and insects of
the desert. He explains in vivid detail time spent in the wilderness and his
endless fascination with the local fauna, from snakes and birds and his own
coursing dogs.

forms and unbelievable color. The intense green-blue of Smithsonite
from this locality is essentially unique. Passes available from Bennie Zamora (575-854-2401)

Bruce Holsapple
Poet Bruce Holsapple has written two books about
living in Magdalena--Vanishing Act and Wayward Shadow—and he promises a third
book soon. His poems are silly, dense, sly, and emotional. Many were written in
Magdalena's Hop Canyon and delight in details like wood stoves, wild flowers,
broken shoe laces, and washing dishes. He sometimes reads them at the library.
His themes involve small town life (and loves) and hiking in the mountains
hereabouts, the Magdalenas, San Mateos,
Manzanos and Bear Mountains. Bruce also worked in
Magdalena Municipal Schools as our Speech-Language Pathologist. His scholarly
book on the poetry of William Carlos Williams will be published by the
University of New Mexico Press in December 2016.

history because he and his relatives lived it. Still ranches at ....years. In collaboration with
