The book The Whole Damned World: New
Mexico Aggies at War 1941-1945 by the
Library’s University Archivist Martha
Shipman Andrews is among the titles listed
as the 100 Best New Mexico Books.
The list was announced in January by the
New Mexico Book Co-op in time for the New
Mexico Centennial in 2012. Books were
voted on by authors, librarians and the
public. There are classic books on the list as
well as relatively new books.
The Whole Damned World was edited by
Andrews, with an introduction by Richard
Melzer of the University of New Mexico-
Valencia. It was published in 2008 by the
NMSU Library in collaboration with Rio
Grande Books.
NMSU students enjoy working in
their new spaces in both libraries.

It appears on the list with such classics as Bless Me, Ultima by Rudolfo Anaya, A Thief of

of World War II. The entire collection of 5,000 letters is held by the Archives and Special
Collections Department of the NMSU Library.
