Las Cruces author Mary Armstrong’s latest book, “The San Augustin: The Two Valleys Saga, Book Two,” is now available on amazon.com, she said.

She is also the author of “The Mesilla: The Two Valleys Saga, Book One,” and “When the Doves Coo: A Prequel Novelette to The Two Valleys Saga.”

“The Mesilla” recently received a bronze medal in the western adult fiction genre from the Historic Fiction Company, Armstrong said.
