Along
the High Road: A Guide to the Scenic Route Between Espanola and Taos, New
Mexico
by Margaret
M. Nava
Book Description: The road between Espanola and Taos, New Mexico,
commonly referred to as the "High Road to Taos," covers a distance of about
fifty miles and passes through many northern frontier settlement towns.
Because of the speed limit and road conditions, a trip along this road
usually takes three hours although some drivers do it in less. They drive
serpentine roads, look at quaint houses and magnificent scenery, and depart
content that they have driven through a fascinating area. But the High
Road is more than just a scenic road trip; it is a journey through the
lives of the people, past and present, who--tied to the earth, fiercely
independent, and staunchly Catholic--settled a hostile land, created a
new life for themselves, and became the moral fiber of New Mexico.
This book gives readers a brief glimpse into the lives, beliefs, and
arts of these people and offers suggestions about sights and accommodations
for travelers willing to take enough time to discover the beauty and mysteries
hidden in the small towns "Along the High Road." MARGARET NAVA, a native
of Illinois, spent twenty years traveling throughout the American Southwest
researching and writing hundreds of local and national magazine articles
about natural science, anthropology, spirituality, and Hispanic and Native
American traditions. However, the lure of the Land of Enchantment, as New
Mexico is call, was strong and several years ago she left the Midwest behind.
These days Margaret, and her dog Sauza, can be found traveling around the
state looking for little-known or unusual travel destinations.
