Book excerpt: The history of Aspen as told through the stories of its people. Aspen has had five distinct eras in its history & each of these eras had its characters... the people who shaped their particular time. There were the prospectors & mining barons of the Silver Mining Years of the 1880s & 1890s. Next came the few hundred people who stayed & kept Aspen alive during the Silver Crash & the Great Depression. These people populated Aspen during the Ranching & Small Town Years of 1900 to 1940. The stories of the Early Years of Skiing & Culture of the 1940s & 1950s are told through the lives of ski bums, artists & writers & the people who established the cultural institutions of Aspen. All kinds of entrepreneurs & fun-loving people filled the Lighthearted Years of the 1960s & 1970s. The Glitz Years of the 1980s & the 1990s saw big money come into Aspen, creating a secure financial base for the skiing & the culture, but forever changing the real estate market as well as the lifestyles of Aspenites. As the stories of the people of each of these eras are told... the history comes alive. Writer Mary Eshbaugh Hayes, photographer Chris Cassatt, & printer Jeff Neumann worked together many years at The Aspen Times. They have put together the stories & the photographs of Aspen's five eras to create this history. The pieces were originally published in The Aspen Times; Aspen Magazine; Destination Magazine; Valley Magazine & Colorado Homes & Lifestyles Magazine.

Book excerpt: From the irrepressible author of Trout Bum and The View from Rat Lake comes an engaging, humorous, often profound examination of life's greatest mysteries: sex, death, and fly-fishing. John Gierach's quest takes us from his quiet home water (an ordinary, run-of-the-mill trout stream where fly-fishing can be a casual affair) to Utah's famous Green River, and to unknown creeks throughout the Western states and Canada. We're introduced to a lively group of fishing buddies, some local "experts" and even an ex-girlfriend, along the way Contemplative, evocative, and wry, he shares insights on mayflies and men, fishing and sport, life and love, and the meaning (or meaninglessness) of it all.
Download or read book Early Aspen written by Douglas N. Beck and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until 1879, the Roaring Fork Valley was home to a band of Colorado Ute Indians. All of that changed in the summer and fall of that year, when two prospecting teams came to the valley to stake their claims, some of which went on to produce millions of dollars of silver. Within five years, Aspen was home to over 20,000 individuals including miners, lawyers, families, businessmen, and even prostitutes. Aspen's fortune was tied to silver. More importantly, its fate was ultimately tied to the Sherman Silver Purchase Act of 1890, which required the US government to buy 4.5 million ounces of silver per month. From 1890 to 1893, the Sherman Act kept Aspen alive and growing. With the repeal of the act, Aspen began a slow, painful decline. This book covers the years of Aspen's discovery, through the years of decline, and into what is known as the "Quiet Years."
