Description: The pioneers and early cowboys in territorial Arizona weren't camera-toting tourists and hikers like many residents today. Most were often consumed with going about their daily lives, trying to get by and survive. Yet some pioneers, and pioneering photographers journeyed to and across the southwest, recording permanent images of what they saw. These photographs are invaluable tools today for land use managers, archaeologists, historians, restorers, and general history buffs, and provide a great view back into what life was like before Arizona became what it is today.
