Discussions include the mysteries of the Cliff Dwellers, Indians and buffalo; early exploration and explorers; trappers, traders and hunters; important events, significant figures (including \"Kit\" Carson and Horace Greeley) and towns; government and laws; education, religion, societies, and business; the Gold Rush, the Pony Express and much more.

Census data has brought to life a cross section of the people who lived in mining camps and nascent towns; readers can see where they came from and speculate on their relationships. Information was also gleaned from old diaries, business directories, and photographs. The authors personally trekked across the Front Range, looking at deserted cabins and the remnants of Colorado's gold rush, and have included directions to most of these ghost towns. The book is arranged by county, and offers an overview of Colorado's gold rush history, the miners who helped settle Colorado, and elements of the gold mining, but the main focus is on the lost cities and mining camps, along with stories of the miners who established these cities. Transcripts from original documents and photographs enhance the text. An excellent resource for genealogists and historians; a wonderful guidebook for campers, backpackers and treasure hunters; and an enjoyable read for armchair adventurers!

This long out-of-print mining directory is a snapshot in time of Colorado's 1879 gold rush mines, listing each documented mine along with its owners, officers, and key employees. A brief discussion of each mine includes the date discovered, location, nature of the ore, etc. Mines are listed alphabetically by county, with a separate section devoted to coal mines and ore mills. The authors have edited and corrected the original compilation, and inserted interesting historical and biographical notes throughout the text.

The pioneers who settled this rich new land began pressing for statehood. This book is a memorial to those brave men and women-a snapshot of the courageous individuals who settled a rugged land and paved the way for statehood. They were hotel keepers and ministers, store owners and barkeepers, city officials and teachers, gold miners and farmers. These pioneers and the towns they founded are named in the excerpts from the 1875 Colorado Business Directory, which are featured herein.

She compiled these recollections to honor those who served, and to give the reader a sense of what the veterans endured. These stories represent the wartime experiences common to all generations of veterans across our nation - veterans who fought in the theaters of Europe, the savannahs of Africa, the islands of the South Pacific, the winters of Korea, the jungles of Southeast Asia, and even today, in the sands of the Middle East. These accounts are funny, sad, courageous, very human, and always amazing. Hair-raising tales of jumping from plummeting aircraft, surviving German prisoner of war camps, hiding behind enemy lines, and daring escapes will keep readers on the edge of their seat and keep the pages turning. Most interviews include a photo of the veteran at the age of service contrasted with a current photo of the veteran. A brief history of Veterans Day, and the background of Memorial Day enhance the interviews.

This volume in the Family Maps series contains newly created maps of original landowners (patent maps) in what is now Morgan County, Colorado, gleaned from the indexes of the U.S. Bureau of Land Management. But it offers much more than that. For each township in the county, there are two additional maps accompanying the patent map: a road map and a map showing waterways, railroads, and both modern and many historical city-centers and cemeteries. Included are indexes to help you locate what you are looking for, whether you know a person's name, a last name, a place-name, or a cemetery. The combination of maps and indexes are designed to aid researchers of American history or genealogy to explore frontier neighborhoods, examine family migrations, locate hard-to-find cemeteries and towns, as well as locate land based on legal descriptions found in old documents or deeds. The patent-maps are essentially plat maps but instead of depicting owners for a particular year, these maps show original landowners, no matter when the transfer from the federal government was completed. Dates of patents typically begin near the time of statehood and run into the 1900s, some as late as the 2000s.
