This Issue of The Almagre Review/La Revista Almagre is solely dedicated to the Taos writer John Treadwell Nichols. We believe that John Nichols deserves accolades as an Anglo American writer who is conversant with northern New Mexican Chicano culture. As such, he joins a small coterie of writers who can cross the cultural divide. This is especially evident in his seminal novel The Milagro Beanfield War. We hope that this issue will help to highlight his unique contribution to American literature.
