Santa Fe Dreamhouse : Encounters in the Land of Enchantment, Paperback by Stevens, Reed, ISBN 0595516068, ISBN-13 9780595516063, Brand New, Free shipping in the US

When Reed and Jim left the east coast to make a new life in the southwest, they found joy, surprises and challenges in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Amidst adobes and vigas, feisty neighborhood battles and cantankerous city politics, they uncovered New Mexico's fascinating present and past culture. They explored Indian country, rounded up cattle, built a spec house and when money ran out, sold real estate.

They survived the good times and the lean in this magic crossroads. If you have ever dreamed of starting over, here's the trail to Santa Fe.

"Through the unfettered light of internal honesty, Stevens conjures a magic akin to that created by Frances Mayes in Under the Tuscan Sun."
