  • Resumen

  • In this second of three podcasts about Albert Fountain, his life and mysterious death, I want to point out the issue of salt. In today’s world salt doesn’t rise to the level of something to fight over or get in a gunfight or have say 30 to 50 people get killed. You can buy salt at the store cheaply. We are talking about the varied life of Albert Fountain, and he did get involved in this conflict in the history of our area. It had several names: The Great Salt War or The El Paso Salt War or even The San Elizario Salt War. Yes, we are talking about salt which is essential today as it was essential 150 years ago. Let me give you one data point. In this so-called war it involved at least 700 armed men who were angry. Another data point: it was a national story not just regional or local. People on the East Coast were following the issue of salt as being someone’s personal asset or a community asset.
