David L. Caffey Americas Editorial Review
Chasing the Santa Fe Ring: Power and Privilege in Territorial New Mexico is a highly recommended book for anyone studying New Mexico history. The author, David Caffey, provides a balanced and thoroughly documented description of the people, their actions, and their impact on the territorial history of New Mexico. Caffey relies on contemporary sources and subsequent analyses of the "Ring" activities to paint a comprehensive picture of this informal and flexible collection of territorial officials, judges, attorneys, and investors motivated by personal gain. The book covers various aspects such as land, agriculture, mining, and government contracts, highlighting the lasting legacies of the "Ring's" mischief. Although the book may have some inaccuracies and lacks in-depth analysis of certain territorial events, it serves as an essential resource for understanding the exploitative nature of the Santa Fe Ring and its role in New Mexico's path to statehood.
