Artwork on front cover, photographs on back cover, includes seven photographs of Anthony Quinn, Charles Bronson, and other American and Mexican movie actors from the MGM movie adaptation, "Guns for San Sebastian." Fray Leon Alastray, ex-soldier now Franciscan missionary, finds his first mission, San Sebastian, along the tributary of the Rio Grande, devastated by Comanche Chief Golden Lance in the late 1700s. He has to instill in his people a desire to rebuild and prepare for the inevitable return of Golden Lance. Slowly the soldier takes the place of the Franciscan, and he has to face a crisis when Golden Lance returns: Is he a son of Cortez or of St. Francis? With a naturalist's eye, the author describes the hauntingly beautifuly Southwestern country. He takes his reader on a tour of Acoma, the sky city, and other memorable New Mexican villages.

A French-founded frontier village that transformed into a booming nineteenth-century industrial mecca dominated by Germans, the city of St. Louis nonetheless resounds from the influence of Irish immigrants. Both the history and the maps of the city are dotted with the enduring legacies of familiar celtsâ€”John Mullanphy, John O'Fallon, Cardinal John J. Glennonâ€”but the true marks of the Irish in St. Louis were made by the common immigrantsâ€”those who fled their homeland to settle in the Kerry Patch on St. Louis's near north sideâ€”and their battle to maintain cultural, ethnographic, and religious roots. Popular local historian William Barnaby Faherty, S.J., offers readers a look into the history and effects of the Irish immigration to St. Louis. The author can now be placed within a rich Irish heritage in the world of publishing: Joseph Charless, editor of the first newspaper west of the Mississippi, the Missouri Gazette; William Marion Reedy, editor of the Mirror and nineteenth-century literary mogul; Joseph McCullagh, editor of the Globe-Democrat in the late nineteenth century; and controversial author Kate (O'Flaherty) Chopin. The Irish in St. Louis is an enticing ethnographic history of one nationality clinging to its roots in a melting- pot American city. Both visitor and native St. Louisian, Irish or not, will relish this history of one of St. Louis's most enduring communities.
