The Tucson Corral of the Westerners, which is a local chapter of Westerners International, consists of men and women who share an interest in learning about the history of the American Southwest, especially Arizona, and Northern Mexico. Since its founding in April 1953, our Corral has met nine to ten times yearly to hear talks on the above subjects by persons with advance knowledge of those subjects.
Starting in May 1960, our Corral has issued The Smoke Signal, a periodic publication, made available to the general public as well as to libraries and universities. A total of 109 different Smoke Signals have been published with more to come. Numerous topics have been addressed in the Smoke Signals, including indigenous affairs, religious missions, mining, agriculture, cultural development, historic personalities, military posts, transportation, and many other subjects.
