	<p>In ~~1981~~, ~~while working as New Mexico State Historian, Stanley~~ M. ~~Hordes began to hear stories of Hispanos who lit candles on Friday night and abstained from eating pork. Puzzling over~~ the matter, Hordes realized that these practices might very well have been passed down through the centuries from early crypto-Jewish settlers in New Spain. After extensive research and hundreds of interviews, Hordes concluded that there was, in New Mexico and ~~the Southwest, a Sephardic legacy derived from the converso community~~ of ~~Spanish Jews.~~		<p>In this thoroughly researched work, David M. Gitlitz traces the lives and fortunes of three clusters of sixteenth-century crypto-Jews in Mexico's silver mining towns.
	~~</p>~~		</p>
	~~<p> In To the End of the Earth, Hordes explores the remarkable story~~ of crypto-Jews ~~and the tenuous preservation of Jewish rituals and traditions~~ in Mexico and New Mexico over the past five hundred years. He follows the crypto-Jews from their Jewish origins in medieval Spain and Portugal to their efforts to escape persecution by migrating to the New World and settling in the far reaches of the northern Mexican frontier.</p>
