520 1 $a""The Complete History of New Mexico" is no ordinary research paper, and this is no ordinary collection of short stories. Eleven-year-old Chum's "history" unfolds over three distinctive and increasingly disturbing sections. He tells that "Coronado explored around and found Santa Fe in 1610"; "William Becknell was tracking wagons over everyplace in 1821"; and how every day best friend Daniel is afraid to go home." "McIlvoy intersperses the title novella with equally distinctive stories set in New Mexico. Laura, a plain, overweight nurse encounters a terrified young man on his way to the Vietnam War, and takes matters into her own hands. An enormous fiberglass rhinoceros resides in a family's barn and ultimately provides shelter from hopelessness. Zach spends time with his "white trash" relatives and finds that beneath the din of obscene provocation and bullying and outbreaks of rage, is love's terrible and true face."--BOOK JACKET.
