Synopsis
In 1859, a group of men from Denver crossed the Continental Divide with the hope of finding gold in the Blue River Valley. Their initial success changed the landscape as towns blossomed across the countryside, and ranches, which provided much needed food, were established along the lower part of the valley. The arrival of the railroads in 1882 facilitated the movement of people and goods in and out of the area. The railroads also made mining operations much more profitable and diminished the isolation of the county s residents. Women and children began arriving in greater numbers in the 1880s, bringing with them the refinements of the Victorian era. The influx of families spurred the establishment of churches, libraries, social clubs, and hospitals and, at the same time, discouraged gambling, drinking, and prostitution.", In 1859, a group of men from Denver crossed the Continental Divide with the hope of finding gold in the Blue River Valley.

- g***w (677)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseWas disappointed by the underlining (and one page had writing as well) of several pages within the first 34 pages… feel that should have been disclosed in the listing but the rest of the book and overall condition was “very good”. It was also shipped very quick. So all in all went well! Thank you:)
