First edition. Dust jacket is rubbed, chipped and torn. Previous owner's name is on the front of the dust jacket and endpaper. Facsimile signatures of all authors on page iv.In Colorado's first 100 years there have been more than 200 protected "Cities", some such as Doosenbury City advanced no further than a claim stake; others such as Denver, which kited a "City" for a few years, grew even larger and greater than their projectors' most optimistic dreams. Most cities were associated with the mining industry, others were associated with different phases of Colorado's history and economic development: Fountain City and Independence City grew from adobe and log Gold Rush settlements into the modern steel city of Pueblo; Boulder, which started as a supply "City" changed to an important educational, research and scientific center.
