This is a historical account of the first 50 years of Camp Verde, Arizona. The history includes nearly all of the Verde Valley. Camp Verde is the oldest settlement in the Verde Valley, and the Sutler’s store was the first commercial building. Those who came here after the store was built used the Sutler’s store for their Post Office, grocery store, information source, and general gathering spot. While efforts were pointed at the Camp Verde story, many who directly affected the town’s development lived in the surrounding areas. These areas are now called Cottonwood, Rimrock, McGuireville, and areas adjacent to Camp Verde. The account begins in 1865 going until 1915 with complete references to places and people.
