Prescott Arizona is a collection and a personal reflection on Newspaper Articles that were printed during the first 50 years of the founding of the town of Prescott.Historical newspapers allow the modern-day researcher to glimpse into the everyday affairs and events that occurred long in the past. The articles you will soon view in this collection are not meant to stir up past transgressions committed by the early settlers of Prescott and other parts of the Arizona Territory, nor are the articles intended to demonize or belittle the indigenous Native Americans you will encounter throughout this collection. You will discover page after page rife with comments and opinions from the people of Prescott and the surrounding areas who once walked, shopped, and gathered on the same streets many of you walk on today.If you are planning to read this book; this is where a line of Historical understanding needs to be made.From this point forward it is paramount, for readers who wish to continue, to be familiar with the Historical context of the term Presentism.Presentism is a historical term meaning judging the people who lived in the past for their actions and social beliefs by today's standards, or an inaccurate adherence to today's attitudes, especially the tendency to view past discriminations and social values in terms of modern values and concepts. Unfortunately, many members of today's societies color and view history through the lens of our current prejudices and social injustices.While reading the articles in this collection please bear in mind, that attitudes and cultural values have changed over time. Try not to condemn or demonize the actions and attitudes of those who lived in the past. No one reading this book should judge, decry, condemn, or censure the use of words written 150 or so years ago by journalists who lived during a time when life and social norms in America were so different than they are today.
