The underground world of con men, winos, prostitutes, laborers, and artists has been an abundant source of material for great writers from Dickens to Bukowski. The underground world of Taos, New Mexico, is no different. In the late 1950s this mountain town was higher, brighter, poorer, and farther removed than London, Paris, or Los Angeles, but it was every bit as rich for the explorations of a young writer. Max Evans, the beloved New Mexican writer of such enduring classics of Western fiction as The Rounders and The Hi-Lo Country, returns to form with The King of Taos. Set in the late 1950s, the novel tells the stories of sharp-witted Zacharias Chacon, aspiring artist Shaw Spencer, and a circle of characters who drink, fight, love, argue, and—mostly—talk. Readers will enjoy this witty and moving evocation of unforgettable characters as they look for work, love, comfort, dignity, and bottomless oblivion.

Two very close life-long friends graduate from the School of Mines and are immediately caught up in the great uranium boom of the 1950s that was centered on Grants, New Mexico. The boom changed the state--and the world--now and forever, and it changes the two young mining engineers. T.C. Young's closest friend, Ray Morris, is tormented by T.C.'s deep love for Julie Goodman who shares with T.C. a love of Anasazi ruins, art galleries, and the mountain streams of Taos. The shining adventures of that mighty historical period turn into a deadly love triangle of murderous thoughts and actions, and the perpetual reincarnation of love, which reach a climax in a mountain cabin and a nearby ancient tunnel inhabited by mysterious mystical powers that jeopardize the lives of all. Max Evans's most recent books are Hot Biscuits, coedited with Candy Moulton, and Madam Millie, both available from UNM Press. He resides in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Violence had long been central to the experience of Hellenistic Greek cities and to their civic discourses. This volume asks how these discourses were shaped and how they functioned within the particular cultural constructs of the Hellenistic world. It was a period in which warfare became more professionalised, and wars increasingly ubiquitous. The period also saw major changes in political structures that led to political and cultural experimentation and transformation in which the political and cultural heritage of the classical city-state encountered the new political principles and cosmopolitan cultures of Hellenism. Finally, and in a similar way, it saw expanded opportunities for cultural transfer in cities through (re)constructions of urban space. Violence thus entered the city through external military and political shocks, as well as within emerging social hierarchies and civic institutions. Such factors also inflected economic activity, religious practices and rituals, and the artistic, literary and philosophical life of the polis.
