Home Sweet Jerome
Death & Rebirth of Arizona’s Richest Copper Mining City
Diane Sward Rapaport
Home Sweet Jerome chronicles the events and personalities of people that led the town
in new directions: a historical society that promoted Jerome as a ghost city; Verde
Exploration, the benevolent successor to United Verde Extension mine; and new industries that fueled financial growth in the seventies and eighties, cannabis gardens, art,
and a scientific instrument manufacturer. The tales of transformation are wilder than
most novelists could concoct.

The Tunnels Under Our Feet
Colorado’s Forgotten Hollow Sidewalks
Tracy Beach
Underground hollow sidewalks and vaults had many uses when they were first
installed in the late 1800s. Vaults allowed businesses to expand and utilize the
unused spaces beneath sidewalks and alleys for storage and coal delivery. Hollow
sidewalks allowed for delivery of merchandise, to allow people to travel from
one place to another without been seen (think prostitutes and speakeasy’s during
Prohibition), and to allow construction of below ground shops. Hollow sidewalks
were shared by all the buildings on a block. The author covers fourteen cities in
Colorado, and a listing of tours of the historic underground across the U.S.

Michael Seeberg
Foreword by Lou Dawson
This long-awaited, newly
revised edition is still the
only one of its kind in the
state. Road Biking Colorado
documents just about every
stretch of non-urban pavement
from the Eastern Plains to the
Western Slope. Maps, terrain
profiles, and the author’s

book a handy companion on
any Colorado road-biking
adventure.
Where to Eat,
Sleep, Fish
Mark D. Williams
W. Chad McPhail
This book explores this dark
side of climbing. When an accident happens on a 14er, the
victim is far from help and in
an environment where rescue
is difficult at best. The book
is full of hair-raising stories
of these disasters and rescue
attempts, and also aids in
avoiding such disasters.

Fly fishing in Colorado is
huge. As one would expect,
there are no shortage
of fly fishing guides. But
whereas other guides focus on
particular waters, this guide is
organized by region, centering
on locations out of which fly
fishers can “home base.” In
other words, this book is organized the same way that people
organize their fly fishing trips.

Rediscovering Colorado’s
Prehistoric Beasts
Anthony D. Fredericks
Stories from Colorado’s Past
Myriam Friggens
You don’t have to go to Europe or
Africa to experience paleontology.
That’s the premise behind Anthony D.
Fredericks’ Walking With Dinosaurs.
Anthony treks across Colorado in
search of the bones left behind by the
dinosaurs that once lived here. What
he finds is an abundance of sites where
the distant past is still within view,
often just a short walk away from
the road.
Written for all ages, this book is a collection of exciting stores from Colorado’s past. Kit Carson, Chief Ouray,
and Molly Brown are a few of the
unforgettable characters brought to
life. The lost gold mine of the Sangre
de Cristos and Tommyknockers add
a touch of the legendary. Intermediate level.

nuggets of trivia, this book is the
perfect companion for enriching your
experience of the park. The reader’s
connection to the park will deepen as
the answers to their nagging questions

The Moab Story
From Cowpokes to Bike
Spokes
Tom McCourt
The town of Moab is a fascinating place with a fascinating
history. This book is the “story” of Moab, not a “history” of
the place. There’s a difference.
For one thing, storytelling is
more fun. History tends to
bog down in the minutia of
events. Telling stories, on the
other hand, still conveys the
truth of historical events but
without the stress and clutter
of academic anxiety.

with cacti, difficult ranch guests, and the everyday
follies of life on a ranch.

Introducing Denverite Brendan Murphy… or “Murph” as
he’s known to the rest of the
world. He lives alone in his
crow’s nest apartment, fries
a hamburger for every meal,
does his dish, then channel
surfs for reruns of “Gilligan’s Island.” He is a radical
minimalist. He strives to earn
no more money as a driver for
Rocky Mountain Taxi Company than his needs require.
This is the second book of The
Asphalt Warrior series. Late
one evening, Murph picks up
a fare, an inebriated young
woman dressed as a flapper.
She is attending the Mile-Hi
Film Festival, and before you
know it, Murph is trying to
return her left-behind purse,
which is stuffed with cash.
Suprisingly, the girl turns up
missing as well.
In this third book of novelist
Gary Reilly’s Asphalt Warrior
series, Murph once again fails
spectacularly at staying out of
the lives of those he transports
the second he picks up a “mover” named Trowbridge. “Movers” in Murph’s world are not
to be confused with “movers
and shakers.” Trowbridge pays
his fare with a crisp five-dollar
bill. Later, Murph finds an
enigmatic hand-written note
on the bill.
Murph abandons his cab and
the mean streets of Denver for
his hometown, his “dear ol’
Maw,” and an Irish Catholic
clan the size of County Cork.
It’s Christmas in Wichita. The
fourth book in the Asphalt
Warrior series has Murph
reluctantly re-establishing
relationships with his brother
and sisters while trying to save
an old friend from making a
soul-killing mistake: seeking a
socially acceptable job.

Murph once again violates
his vow never to get involved
in the lives of his passengers.
This time he is out to rescue
two young neo-hippie girls
he believes have come under
the spell of a cult leader in a
commune outside Boulder.
The fifth book in the Asphalt
Warrior series has Murph going undercover to accomplish
his mission. He tries to pass
himself off as an old love
child in his confrontation
with Brother Chakra. As the
good Brother might say, “It’s a
mind-blowing trip.”

The Enlisted Men’s Club
Barry Wightman
Gary Reilly
This book is a ‘70s rock and roll race
through the heartland of America—
a love letter to the power of new-fangled computers and the importance
of a guitar pick. Pepperland is about
missing information, missing people,
missing guitars, paranoia, brothers,
revolution, Agents of the Federal
Government, IBM, Hugh Hefner, a
Dark Stranger, love, death and the
search for it amidst the wreckage
of recession-wracked, entropically
rundown mid-seventies America.
The Enlisted Men’s Club is the first of a trilogy of stories about Vietnam by the late Gary
Reilly, based on his experiences in Vietnam.
Private Palmer is stationed at San Francisco’s
army base at The Presidio, awaiting orders.
He’s trying to find his place in the ranks. He’s
trying to avoid work. While he’s been trained
as a Military Policeman, he has no idea what’s
next. Private Palmer focuses his attention on
killing time, finding cold beer and thinking up
ways to survive each day. The trick, he decides,
is not care about anything during his time in the
Army. To his surprise, that’s the most difficult
challenge of all.
