A Letter to the Citizens of Arizona:
Every two years, the Office of the Secretary of State publishes the Arizona Blue Book. The Blue Book serves as
an important reference work of Arizona's public policyrnaking entities and the p[...]ion results that impact Arizona citizens.
As this new century begins, I wanted to create a special[...]nd unique significance in the United States.
This Ariw na Blue Book is a commemorative millennium edition. Although some parts of this publication may
be made avail able electronically[...]u to collect the printed edition for the
richness of its entire contents.
The Blue Book begins with a tour of Arizona's natural beauty highlighting national pa[...]ewest state park, Kartchner Caverns, is a fantasy of colorful mineral
deposits that is unforgettable in its beauty and wonder.)
Previous editions of the B/11e Book presented segments of our state's history. This edition presents Lhe entire
history of our state. Important events and the people who contri buted to our past and present are an invaluable
resource for anyone seeking to know about Arizona's historical development and role in this century. And, if the
past is prologue, this edition provides a gli mpse of what is possible in the 2 1st century.
No account of history would be complete without making special mention of United States Senator Barry
Goldwater ( 1909- l 9[...]i-
bution Barry Goldwater made to the development of Arizona and to state and national politics was im[...]come. His pri nciples gave
rise to the generation of large ideas that would inspire and shape poliLics in a profound way. He is missed, also, for
his style of plain speaking that characterizes the individual borne of western ideals and candor.
Another event of historical signifi cance occurred in late 1998. A[...]fices in the state, including governor, secretary of
state, attorney general, treasurer, and superintendent of public instruction. Local and national media wrote of the

Hot Spots" in the nation (Inc. Magazine, Dec. 1999). This is good news for all citizens.
I hope you enjoy the Arizona Blue Book as much as r have enjoyed bringing it to you. As you read it, may you
feel, as we have, the benefit of God's greal palette, an extraordinary sense of time, and a great optimism fo r future
generations that wi ll enjoy being part of the Arizona experience.[...]Secretary of State[...]
