Arizona Highways magazine was born in the early 1920s. As automobiles emerged as the preferred mode of transportation in the U.S., a handful of states throughout the country developed magazines to entice motorists to travel newly developed roads. Sponsored by the states' departments of transportation, these magazines provide a unique resource for examining how the automobile changed the history of travel and helped to shape identities of place in America. Of these magazines, none date as far back or have featured the iconic photography that has made Arizona Highways a national treasure.

5/15/2020 - the Arizona Highways collection on the Arizona Memory Project is outstanding and appreciated but not complete especially for early issues. Magazines are downloadable as PDFs.

The Saguaro Juniper Corporation is a group of over 60 associates holding both deeded land and land leased from the State of Arizona. This land is located in and around Hot Springs Canyon, a major tributary of the central San Pedro River in the southeastern part of our state. Saguaro Juniper associates are more likely to consider themselves stewards of the land rather than owners. To quote from the Preamble to our Saguaro Juniper Covenant, “In acquiring private governance, we agree to cherish its earth, waters, plants and animals in a way that promotes the health, stability, and diversity of the whole community.” Thus we do not seek to isolate wildlands from all human contact, rather we hope to include human beings as partners embracing the land, its plants and animals. Saguaro Juniper is a share-holder corporation that makes decisions by a consensual process.

Historic contexts provide information about historic trends and properties grouped by an important theme in the prehistory or history of a community, State, or the nation during a particular period of time. Historic contexts link historic properties and/or cultural resources to important historic trends to provide a framework for determining the significance of a property or site and its eligibility for National Register listing. A knowledge of historic contexts allows applicants to understand a historic property / cultural resource as a product of its time and as an illustration of aspects of heritage that may be unique, representative, or pivotal.

The official technical description of the documents on this page downplays how interesting they are even to a general audience because they cover core issues in Arizona History such as Cattle Ranching, mining, homesteading, water utilization, historic trails and the military in Arizona!
