Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Home to long-forgotten mining towns, defunct fisheries and neglected cabins, the turbulent headwaters of the Upper Rio Grande conceal a largely unknown history. Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys brought their legendary Texas swing to Crooked Creek Canyon's S Lazy U barn dance, while a comedy of errors unfolded around the ranch's secret still. Obstetrician Dr. MaryAnn Faunce, the daughter of an abolitionist and suffragette, made house calls as a real-life Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman. Rough-and-tumble miners drawn to Creede's silver boom found accommodations ranging from the primitive to the opulent, though none as enduring as the Creede Hotel. Upper Rio Grande native Carol Ann Wetherill and author Sandra Wagner preserve and celebrate the pioneering spirit that defined the early days in this obscure corner of southern Colorado.

Download or read book Gold Mining in Gilpin County Colorado written by Samuel Cushman and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-11-09 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mining historian Kerby Jackson introduces us to a classic mining work in this important re-issue of "The Gold Mines of Gilpin County Colorado." Unavailable since 1876, this publication was originally compiled by the Register Steam Printing House of Central City, Colorado. This publication offers a rare glimpse at the gold mining history and early mines of Gilpin County, Colorado from their first discovery in the 1850's up to the "flush years" of the mid 1870's. Of particular interest is the history of the discovery of gold in Gilpin County and details about the men who made those first strikes. Special focus is given to the early gold mines and first mining districts of the area, many of which are not detailed in other books on Colorado's gold mining history. Also included is some interesting advertising from early merchants and companies that supported the miners during Gilpin County's gold rush, as well as insights into local civic groups and other organizations that played an important role in the lives of most Gilpin County miners. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As such, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.
