Richly illustrated, Artists of the Canyons and Caminos traces the lives and work of painters who settled in Santa Fe in the early years of the twentieth century. Under their influence, Santa Fe grew from a dusty high-desert town with no paved streets or automobiles to a thriving community. Artists of the Canyons and Caminos features a new foreword by publisher Gibbs M. Smith, and reveals little-known facts and profiles of the personalities who catalyzed this transformation. Above all, it illuminates their common bond: an enduring love for the beauty of the land that called to them in the first place. Some places in the world have a particular atmosphere, a sense of romance, which makes them "good places to paint." Santa Fe, New Mexico-with its clean, sharp air; its startlingly bright colors; its sculptured mesas and mountains-is one of these places. Artists of the Canyons and Caminos includes: A brief chronology of Santa Fe from its inauguration as a state capital housing the oldest public building in the United States (Palace of the Governors); to the first annual exhibition of the Cinco Pintores in 1921, when of the town's population of 7,000, 15 were resident artists; to the opening of the Institute of American Indian Arts in 1962. Descriptions of the broad spectrum of representational styles that flourished there, from romance to super-realism. Major patrons of the arts: railroads, scientists, territorial senators, lawyers, well-to-do retirees. The artists' missions: admiration for the local Indians and their arts, encouragement of young artists of all nationalities, solidarity to prevent Santa Fe from being overly Americanized.

**Finalist, PROSE Award in Clinical Medicine** A rich examination of the history of trans medicine and current day practice Surfacing in the mid-twentieth century, yet shrouded in social stigma, transgender medicine is now a rapidly growing medical field. In Trans Medicine, stef shuster makes an important intervention in how we understand the development of this field and how it is being used to “treat” gender identity today. Drawing on interviews with medical providers as well as ethnographic and archival research, shuster examines how health professionals approach patients who seek gender-affirming care. From genital reconstructions to hormone injections, the practice of trans medicine charts new medical ground, compelling medical professionals to plan treatments without widescale clinical trials to back them up. Relying on cultural norms and gut instincts to inform their treatment plans, shuster shows how medical providers’ lack of clinical experience and scientific research undermines their ability to interact with patients, craft treatment plans, and make medical decisions. This situation defies how providers are trained to work with patients and creates uncertainty. As providers navigate the developing knowledge surrounding the medical care of trans folk, Trans Medicine offers a rare opportunity to understand how providers make decisions while facing challenges to their expertise and, in the process, have acquired authority not only over clinical outcomes, but over gender itself.
