Boulder: Evolution of a City |
|
by Silvia Pettern |
|
A memorable stroll through time. More than three hundred black and
white photographs many never before published show how Boulder has grown and changed over the past century,
while emphasizing what has been preserved. The book's inviting format features current photographs of various
locations contrasted with one, two, sometimes three historical photographs of the same locations. No current
publication covers Boulder's history so thoroughly and enjoyably. Newcomers, tourists, and even longtime
residents are sure to learn something new in these pages. |

The Last War Trail |
|
by Robert Emmitt |
|
The Utes and the Settlement of Colorado - The late writer and editor
Robert Emmitt spent time on the Ute reservation in Whiterocks, Utah and in Colorado to research his 1954 book
The Last War Trail: The Utes & the Settlement of Colorado. The well-told history, complete with the
voices of Indians surviving the encroachment of white settlers, has been reissued by University Press of
Colorado and provides a compelling look at the conquering of the West from a Native perspective. It includes
photos, drawings and maps. |

Colorado,
1870-2000 by William Henry Jackson, John Fielder (Photographer)
The images of early west photographer William Henry
Jackson captured a Colorado landscape both pristine and already affected by the onslaught of
western civilization. Standing exactly where Jackson stood, and pointing his own camera in
precisely the same direction, John Fielder has re-photographed Jackson's Colorado and captured
the often startling changes that have occurred over the last 100 years. Breathtaking and
stark, hopeful and disquieting these photographs are accompanied by the thoughtful essays of
Roderick Nash, Ed Marston and Eric Paddock. |
