A phantastical history of Colorado as seen through the legacies of 14 influential Coloradans:
These quirky biographies will have you thwacking your head, asking, "How have I never heard about this before?"
You'll meet:
Two Aspen ladies who created an international sensation when they eloped to marry each other - in 1889,
A developer who wanted to populate Red Rocks Park with life-size dinosaur carvings,
A hippie pastor and 19 disabled people who shut down Colfax and Broadway in 1978,
The circus star who made Colorado a ski state,
And more!
This magical mix of truth and time travel will inspire you to go out and explore the places where it all happened. And show you how and where.
