Inhaltsangabe

Denver's City Hall War, Colorado's Famous Cannibal, The Deadly Rat Game, Gold Bricks for Sale, The Pickled Skull Mystery, A Burro Named Prunes, Colorado's Apeman, and MORE in 42 true stories! Imaginative pioneers are as much a part of Colorado's history as mining, ranching and railroading. They create a fertile setting for staged collisions, a horse that rode a trolley car, the discovery of a petrified man, and so much more. In Colorado's Strangest, Kenneth Jessen gives us a closer look at some of the more peculiar aspects of the state's history. Combining the best of Jessen's earlier books: Eccentric Colorado and Bizarre Colorado. "Any of us lucky to prowl the nooks and crannies of the highest state with Ken Jessen, know he is tireless in pursuing the strange. Who else has the secrets of every ghost town and where the state's most notable outhouses lie. This crackerjack book will test the knowledge—and the credulity—of even the most knowledgeable Coloradoan."
-- Tom "Dr. Colorado" Noel
