Arizona Colonists, Pioneers, and Immigrants

(Brought to you by the Arizona Humanities) 

Arizona’s history is much more than Hollywood’s Wild West stereotypes of cowboys, lawmen, and outlaws.  In addition to miners, merchants, and ranchers, the area attracted faith-based farmers, health seekers, and women entrepreneurs of many creeds and cultures, including a Greco-Syrian camel driver.  This presentation describes Arizona history’s notables and notorious characters from the common folk to public heroes.
