3 Memorandum from Terry Nichols, Supervisory Park Ranger, to Interpreters, October 30, 1982. Memorandum found in "Management Evaluation, Hubbell Trading Post National Historic Site" by Ronald R. Switzer, Frances Dean, and Edward D. Carlin. November 3-4, 1982. Bound, photocopied edition from the Curator's office at Hubbell Trading Post National Historic Site.

10 Mary Alice (Showaltor) Bowlin, of Mesilla, New Mexico. She grew up at Fort Defiance, knew the Hubbells well. She describes Roman as a kind, sophisticated, charming man. Interview with authors, November 22, 1991.

11 A more thorough look at the history of Hubbell Trading Post can be found in many places. Try Robert M. Utley's Study of 1959 for the Park Service, Special Report or Hubbell Trading Post; or Frank McNitt's The Indian Traders. Because the fifty or so boxes of papers relating to Hubbell business matters have not been thoroughly researched, a definitive history remains to be written. Much of the story that has come down to us is hearsay and legend. Because this history is supposed to deal mainly with post-1957 matters, the early history of the trading post, traders, and Navajo will be discussed only enough to clarify issues.


CHAPTER I

3 The Indian Detours operated under the aegis of the Santa Fe Railway and the Harvey restaurant and hotel company. Tourists were driven all over the Southwest in Packard and Cadillac touring cars and sedans. Its heyday was the 1920s and 1930s. Little known today, the Indian Detour was an important instrument in opening up the Southwest to general tourism. The first trip by Indian Detour cars took place on the 15th of May, 1926. The Danson family risked a tour with them just a few weeks later. Dorothy Hubbell, in a recorded interview on March 27, 1991, said that general tourism did not start at Ganado until the late 1920s. In their way, the Dansons, too, were pioneers. [The authors know several former drivers and couriers who worked for the Indian Detours. They've written magazine articles on the subject, and a section of their book, Trails Begins Where Rails End, is devoted to the Indian Detours.]

7 The schooner Yankee was owned and operated by Irving and Electa Johnson, New Englanders who made several such trips with at Ieast two large sailing vessels, both called Yankee. The Johnsons are well known to long-time readers of National Geographic. The crews of the Yankee vessels were amateurs who paid for the opportunity to spend two years before the mast. The 1933-1935 voyage was the first and is told about in the Johnsons' book Westward Bound In The Schooner Yankee (See bibliography). A young Ned Danson is included in at Ieast one of the photographs.

12 Dorothy Hubbell is referred to as "Lady" by many people. One person, Mary Alice Bowlin, of Mesilla, New Mexico, who knew Dorothy as far back as the 1930s, referred to her as a "lady's lady." Indeed, Dorothy Hubbell is an elegant and intelligent person. Park personnel feel the name was given to her by J.L. Hubbell when she first arrived in Ganado.
