Prescott, Ariz., nestles in a mile-high bowl amid the pine-covered knobs of the Bradshaw and San Prieto mountains. It was there that Grandfather "Big Mike" Goldwater, the Jewish peddler, settled in 1875, laid the foundation of a prosperous family merchandising business.

Generations of Britons have made a hobby of Bradshaw, the defunct, encyclo pedic railway guide that Sherlock Holmes knew by heart. A fervent Brad shaw buff's severest censure of a fellow devotee: "He is rather weak on his Sun day locals."
