Book Description

Excerpt from Denver by Pen and Picture Upon what meat doth this our Denver feed That she is grown so great?' A stranger arriving in Denver at the end of a railroad journey of 600 miles over the plains from the Missouri River, as he realizes the size of the city, usually involuntarily asks himself - What justifies the existence of Denver? Is it not already too large Can it be possible that the city will continue to grow? Thorough investigation, however, demonstrates that Denver is the natural and inevitable outcome or product of the development of Colorado and the surrounding States and Territories. So far from being too large, it will continue to grow proportionately to the development of the surrounding country.

Seth of Colorado

Excerpt from Seth of Colorado: A Story of the Settlement of Denver In the year 1857 I was living in Lawrence, Kansas, with my father and mother, and a happier lad it would be difficult to find, for my home was a most pleasant one. I had as loving a mother as any boy could desire, and my father, while stern now and then, had a warm place for me in his heart I understood this well when, from time to time, without speaking, he would press me closely to his breast, then turn quickly away, as if ashamed of having shown any token of love.
