Notes from the Past

A Family History of Early Mining Pioneers
on the Colorado Front Range

​

Based on hand-written notes, ledgers and diaries the author found tucked away in a battered box, hidden in her family home for more than 40 years, Notes from the Past details the true story, personal account of the author’s paternal grandparents, spanning more than 120 years—from the 1840s to the 1960s—and who witnessed profound changes in the country. This riveting history and narrative nonfiction delves into the booming silver mining in Colorado’s Front Range mountains at the turn of the twentieth century, an industry fraught with disaster and full of prosperity.
