DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Colorado Pioneers in Picture and Story It has been my crrt to weave around a thread of history the legends, traditions and reminiscences Of the Pioneers, which accentuate the great phases in the development of Colorado, from its earliest history to the time it became a State in 1876. Ever since I journeyed into Denver in a Pullman car, in 1872 l have been interested in the people who blazed the way. I have listened to their tales Of how they won the West, and have found in the real incidents in the lives of real people a charm to which fiction can never attain. The labor of the Pioneers involved the highest type of moral as well as physical courage, and by placing their brave deeds in an historical setting I hope to preserve their intensely interesting human Side and Show how the isolated settlement, in a dreary desert, found its way into the sisterhood Of states.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFrom the author of The Agitators, the acclaimed and captivating true story of two restless society girls who left their affluent lives to “rough it” as teachers in the wilds of Colorado in 1916. In the summer of 1916, Dorothy Woodruff and Rosamond Underwood, bored by society luncheons, charity work, and the effete men who courted them, left their families in Auburn, New York, to teach school in the wilds of northwestern Colorado. They lived with a family of homesteaders in the Elkhead Mountains and rode to school on horseback, often in blinding blizzards. Their students walked or skied, in tattered clothes and shoes tied together with string. The young cattle rancher who had lured them west, Ferry Carpenter, had promised them the adventure of a lifetime. He hadn’t let on that they would be considered dazzling prospective brides for the locals. Nearly a hundred years later, Dorothy Wickenden, the granddaughter of Dorothy Woodruff, found the teachers’ buoyant letters home, which captured the voices of the pioneer women, the children, and other unforgettable people the women got to know. In reconstructing their journey, Wickenden has created an exhilarating saga about two intrepid women and the “settling up” of the West.
