Santa Fe Sketch Book: History and Sketches of the City Different
by Lewis Edward Ewen
About the author
Lewis Edward Ewen is known for Santa Fe Sketch Book: History and Sketches of the City Different, a short illustrated work that explores the history and character of Santa Fe, New Mexico. The book has remained accessible through Project Gutenberg, which helps preserve it for modern readers.
Available sources also describe him as an American artist associated with Santa Fe, and auction records suggest he produced paintings in addition to writing. That artistic background fits the feel of his book, which approaches the city not just as a subject of history but as a place of visual charm and lived detail.
Very little biographical information about his life was readily confirmed in reliable, open sources during this search. What does come through clearly is his lasting interest in Santa Fe and his effort to present the city in a way that is both informative and atmospheric.
