Cover. Three panels of the cover
design symbolize the story of Pecos. At the top is Spain's royal coat of
arms after a rendering by Pecos Alcalde mayor Bernardo de Miera y
Pacheco. In the center stands a Pecos "captain" portrayed on pottery
from the period of first contact between Spaniard and Pecos. And
beneath, the crossed arms of Christ and St. Francis personify two
centuries of Franciscan presence at the Pueblo.
