Between 1850 and 1912, the year New Mexico was granted statehood, the Territory of New Mexico was a wild and dangerous place. Homesteaders, cowboys, ranchers, sheepherders, buffalo hunters, prospectors, treasure hunters and railroad men pushing the borders of the western frontier met with resistance from man and animal alike. Native Americans, who had lived on the land defending their boundaries and way of life for centuries, reacted to the wave of outsiders in various ways. The agrarian Pueblo peoples along the Rio Grande largely kept to themselves. Apache, Navajo and Ute tribes sometimes attempted to co-exist with the newcomers but most often they fought against encroachment. Anglo and Mexican outlaws ran roughshod across the frontier and there was no shortage of bears, wolves, mountain lions, blizzards and bad water to unsettle the newcomers. This collection of frontier stories vividly illustrates the range of struggles, triumphs and catastrophes faced by settlers who hoped to tame the land and inhabitants of Territorial New Mexico. Between 1936 and 1940, field workers in the Federal Writers' Project (a branch of the government-funded Works Progress Administration, or WPA, later called Work Projects Administration) recorded authentic accounts of life in the early days of New Mexico. These original documents, published here as a story collection for the first time, reflect the conditions of the New Mexico Territory as played out in dynamic clashes between individuals and groups competing for control of the land and resources. "Frontier Stories," the second in the New Mexico Federal Writers' Project Book Series, features informative background and historic photographs. Forthcoming books in the series include collections on mining and buried treasure, Hispano folk life, and cattle trails and ranching. Ann Lacy, co-editor of the New Mexico Federal Writers' Project Book series, has lived in New Mexico since 1979. She has been an Artist-in-Residence in the New Mexico Artists-in-the-Schools Program and a studio artist exhibiting her work in museums and galleries. She has worked as a researcher and writer for Project Crossroads, specializing in New Mexico history and culture, since 1987. She received a City of Santa Fe 2000 Heritage Preservation Award. Anne Valley-Fox, co-editor of the New Mexico Federal Writers' Project Book series, is a poet and writer who has worked for two decades as a writer/researcher for Project Crossroads. Her publications include "Your Mythic Journey: Finding Meaning in Your Life through Writing and Storytelling," "Sending the Body Out," "Fish Drum 15" and "Point of No Return." "How Shadows Are Bundled" is her latest collection of poems.Binding Type: Paperback

Cute but not the sturdiest
Color: White
It hold everything well and looks really nice on my dresser. I like that the variations in the leaves allows for me to hang things of varying size up in a way that’s cute and accessible when I want to wear it. I like having all my jewelry visible at a glance.
The base is a really light weight wood and so you can’t screw the top super tightly just because the wood wouldn’t hold up to that very well. That means that the tree may lean or spin a bit if you’re grabbing your earring and it’s base from one of the leaves. There’s no fear of breakage, but just not the ideal experience. So it’s not the sturdiest. It doesn’t really need to be to do what it does, but that’s the one thing I wish could be improved about this display.

I love this!!
I struggled to put it together - I had to use pliers and REALLY PRY to get the nut off in order to screw it to the base. But once I did, I am super happy with this. It's pretty and has a lot of room for all my earrings. I also put necklaces and bracelets in the base. The downside other than how hard it was to put together is how wobbly the tree part is, but I think if I tightened the screw, it would be fine.

Awesome jewelry tree
Color: Black
The design is attractive and the holes for earrings are placed perfectly. I also have several necklaces hanging on the branches. The tray underneath the tree is perfect for bracelets and watches.I feel this is a unique design. I did attach washers above and below the tray on the screw to secure the tree better- love it!!!

Buy it
Color: Black, Color: Black
This was super easy to assemble, I didn’t even need any tools. It had plenty of room for my 46 current pairs of earrings, plus room for 18 more. It feels sturdy and isn’t outrageously over sized so it fit perfectly on top of my old jewelry box. The tray at the bottom is great too because now I can keep my rings and ear cuffs on display rather than try and stuff them on top of each other in the jewelry box.
