by Judith Ann Isaacs

The Jemez Mountain Trail, one of six National Scenic Byways in New Mexico, follows the Jemez River through a spectacular canyon and into the mountains, passing the Pueblo of Jemez, state and national monuments, centuries-old villages, and great fishing, hiking and camping opportunities.

This guide is a mile-by-mile handbook to the entire trail and four side trips along the way. Included are detailed descriptions of history, geology, recreational opportunities, fishing tips and points of interest. The book ends with a complete listing of restaurants, lodging, galleries and more. Illustrated with maps and black-and-white photos.

JEMEZ VALLEY COOKBOOK:
The Food, The People, The Land
by Judith Ann Isaacs

The Jemez Valley Cookbook is more than just a cookbook. Through the stories of those who contributed, readers learn about the delightful range of characters who make their homes in a beautiful enclave of New Mexico's northern mountains. The history of the valley is related through anecdotes and black-and-white photos by Theodore Greer.

Many of the recipes have Southwest origins, they all reflect the varying backgrounds of their creators. Try traditional Spanish and Indian dishes (Enchiladas Verdes de Jocoque, Quelites, Bizcochitos, Red Chili Stew). Sample contemporary--and quick--Southwestern selections (Dump-It-In Casserole, Vegetarian Mexican Casserole, Green Chili-Cheese Bread). Experience eclectic European dishes (Aunt Edith's Tea Cakes, Yugoslavian Cookies). These recipes were created, not by sophisticated chefs, but by residents who enjoy cooking, eating -- and sharing. They're also lucky enough to live in a magical landscape.  Illustrated with black and white photos of the Valley.
