Jim Turner, Historian 

In my years at the Arizona Historical Society I answered many questions about the state. I learned constantly how much I did not know, but became more and more adept at learning who knew the answers, and was able to refer many people to the source of information the sought.

Feel free to ask any questions you may have about Arizona history. If I do not know the answers, I will do my best to suggest other sources for you. 

Dominican Friar Bartolomeo de Las Casas penned A Short Account of the Destruction of the Indies in 1542, the first history of racial persecution in the Americas.
