Críticas:

"The Herndon Davis Collection in our Western History and Genealogy Department is one of our most prized treasures. Anyone dealing with major characters and/or notable buildings in Colorado should check into Davis's portraits and paintings of notable sites. In some cases Davis provides the only extant image of certain people and places. In hundreds of colorful paintings and drawings he adds impressively to our portrait gallery. The Denver Public Library is pleased to be a collaborator on this overdue book on one of our most popular and prolific artists."
--James X. Kroll, Manager, Western History and Genealogy Department, Denver Public Library

"Readers who are interested in Colorado's art and history will welcome this cornucopia of paintings and drawings by Herndon Davis. . . . this book is a treasure."
--Colorado Central Magazine
