WINNER, HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF NEW MEXICO FABIOLA CABEZA DE BACA AWARD WINNER, NIEA BOOK AWARD SILVER MEDALIST, IPPY AWARD FINALIST, NEW MEXICO BOOK AWARD In 1998 Tim and Lucia Amsden left their familiar lives in Kansas City and moved to the Ramah Valley in northwestern New Mexico, where they lived for the next two decades. <i>Love Letter to Ramah: Living Beside New Mexico's Trail of the Ancients</i> recounts their experiences there, nestled among an eclectic and diverse community of loving, earth-rooted people. It is also an evocation of the rich human and natural history permeating the area and of the necessity--central to the traditional beliefs of Indigenous people--of living in concert with the living earth, and with each other.<br><br>Along the way they caught glimpses of a myriad of wonders, including singing toads, talking pots, and the daughter of the sun god, all in a land where ravens soar above the rhythmic yelp and drone of Native music, and old Spanish missions hunker over the bones of ancient people.
