Death and Dying in New Mexico
In this exploration of how people lived and died in eighteenth- and nineteenth- century New Mexico, Martina Will weaves together the stories of individuals and communities in this cultural crossroads of the American Southwest. The wills and burial registers at the heart of this study provide insights into the variety of ways in which death was understood by New Mexicans living in a period of profound social and political transitions. This volume addresses the model of the good death that settlers and friars brought with them to New Mexico, challenges to the model's application, and the eventual erosion of the ideal. The text also considers the effects of public health legislation that sought to protect the public welfare, as well as responses to these controversial and unpopular reforms. Will discusses both cultural continuity and regional adaptation, examining Spanish-American deathways in New Mexico during the colonial (approximately 1700–1821), Mexican (1821–1848), and early Territorial (1848–1880) periods.

Extension Class
The book Extension Class: The Classic Four is the struggle of high school students, evident in our young girls state of confusion and their conscious alienation from the outside world, their untold stories and mysteries of lifes existence beyond their age. The book, therefore, is a conscious effort to inspire our young generation, especially, the girls in public schools, and women in general to overcome their concerns, to be more focused in their lives and aspirations, to be independent in minds and in their thoughts, to see beyond the immediate fantasies that can spell doom in the future, to be more life conscious, bearing in mind that so many lives, born and unborn, depend on their actions and, more importantly, to create more humanely oriented generation.
