Experience Colorado with this new, expanded edition of A Colorado History. For fifty years, the authors of this preeminent resource have
led readers on an extraordinary exploration of how the state has changed-and how it has stayed the same.
An engaging narrative, A Colorado History begins with the prehistoric cliff dwellers of Mesa Verde and proceeds chronologically with accounts of Colorado’s role as a frontier territory–its fur trade, mining, Indian relations, cattle ranching, and homesteading–and continues to the present day political, economic, cultural, and environmental issues. Fascinating, informative, and accessible to history buffs, students, researchers–or anyone–interested in the remarkable story of a remarkable place. The tenth edition features a new chapter on recent events, new photos, and an updated bibliography section.
