A_Z Colorado’s Nearly Forgotten History

Visits With History
Colorado’s history didn’t begin in 1876 when it was admitted to the Union. It began long before that. People and events helped shape this diverse state which we call home. There are many tales to be told of the 100 years before statehood. Tales of people, places and events that are in danger of being forgotten.
John Anderson, a Colorado Springs resident, is a published author who has written a book so that some of these tales will be remembered. After retiring from a 30 year law enforcement career, John Anderson traveled the world. But he remains most interested by the rich history found in the American Southwest.
