New Mexicoas first Franciscan priest, Fray AngA(c)lico ChAvez (1910a1996) is known as a prolific historian, a literary and artistic figure, and an intellectual who played a vital role in Santa Feas community of writers. The original essays collected here explore his wide-ranging cultural production: fiction, poetry, architectural restoration, journalism, genealogy, translation, and painting and drawing. Several essays discuss his approach to history, his archival research, and the way in which he re-centers ethnic identity in the prevalent Anglo-American master historical narrative. Others examine how he used fiction to bring history alive and combined visual and verbal elements to enhance his narratives. Two essays explore ChAvezas profession as a friar. The collection ends with recollections by Thomas E. ChAvez, historian and Fray AngA(c)licoas nephew. Readers familar with ChAvezas work as well as those learning about it for the first time will find much that surprises and informs in these essays. aA wonderful tribute to a great man.aaRudolfo Anaya aUNM Press is to be congratulated on the publication of this long-awaited work on Fray ChAvez. His fiction, his poetics, and his art work are fully detailed by a select group of both young and seasoned scholars.aaRolando Hinojosa-Smith
