Notes: The chapter on how the Indians obtained horses, AND learned to use them–“It was the early seventeenth-century Spanish settlements in New Mexico, particularly in the neighborhood of Santa Fe, that were the centers from which the horse complex spread to the Indians.” (p.86)–merits a book in itself.
