Overview
Cuentos de Dilia, Tales of a Farming Village is about the Guadalupe county community of Dilia. In its glory days, Dilia was located on the historic Route 66. However, in the 1930s, Dilia was bypassed. Dilia eventually saw U. S. Highway 84 pass come into the area on its north-south route through New Mexico. Cuentos de Dilia consists of a series of vignettes, mostly culled from old newspapers about events and people who once lived in the area. Many of them are Spanish-language articles and include an English translation. Some of the articles are about the deaths of some of the leading citizens who once inhabited the area. Others would probably best categorize them as wild and woolly stories. Also included are some everyday news items that help portray life in the rural community.
