"Santa Fe has been a center for artists and writers over the years. Most of them hailed from elsewhere. This was true in 1927 for the Philadelphia-native artist Dorothy Newkirk Stewart (194-1955) and in 1930 for my father, the Irish militant nationalist, author and poet, General Ernie O'Malley (1897-1957)." - Cormac K H O'Malley
Number 78 in an edition limited to only one hundred books. Bound in the style of the popular travel journals that letterpress printer James Bourland produced for Palace Press.
