An inspiring biography of an Indigenous girl who survived a terrible illness—and grew up to create pottery shown in the Smithsonian and other major museums. At age ten, Maria Montoya Martinez was stricken with smallpox. Near death, she lay limply in her mother’s arms, unable even to swallow the herbal teas offered her. All the attempts to revive her seemed to have failed. Trying one last remedy, her aunt and mother filled the hearth with thick green cedar boughs and smoked the room, waving the fumes towards the sick little girl. Maria’s mother desperately prayed to Santo Nino, the children’s saint, promising that if Maria lived, she would send her on a pilgrimage to see him. Maria lived to make the pilgrimage—and enjoy a long life. But she was forever marked by this event. Her pilgrimage to the Santuario in Chimayo, New Mexico, becomes a symbol of her life. It is a journey toward humility, hard work, and perfection. She feels special since she was favored to live. And so she constantly strives to create the most worthy pots she can, always keeping in mind Old Grandmother’s prowess with clay. The clay connects her to the earth, and the clay links her to her future husband, Julian, who becomes a painter of her pots. Through the years, she is blessed and blesses her whole pueblo with money and, more importantly, love. Maria Montoya Martinez: Master Potter is the biography of a very sick little girl who grew to be a strong and talented woman—written by a prize-winning author who was one of Maria’s personal friends.

The recent introduction and spread of African swine fever (ASF) into Europe and Asia has shown that an integrated, multidisciplinary effort is needed to tackle this disease and the complex challenges it poses. This book presents practical guidelines on surveillance for detection of ASF virus, how to prevent outbreaks in the domestic pig sector through biosecurity and cleaning and disinfection routines, including in backyard holdings, and how to control and eradicate this disease in wild boar. Information on pathological lesions and diagnostic practices are provided to support practitioners. Virus infection mechanisms and the consequent host immune response are reported together with an overview on the status of vaccine and treatment development. Information on ASF epidemiology and the European wild boar and domestic pig populations is presented to assist breeders, wildlife managers and policy makers in designing practices aimed at preventing, or controlling and eradicating, this disease. The book provides currently available knowledge in a single place, and identifies knowledge gaps, prompting policy makers and funding bodies to support the scientific community in investigating the gaps.
