America has defined itself by journeys and transformations. The same can be said of the American Southwest. The truest American and Southwestern stories – in history, literature, and myth – are stories of travels and changes: on the physical trails of the New World, over the inner paths of the spirit, from one landscape – actual or imagined – to another.
