By Susan Consola Appleby
Award winning history Douglas County, Colorado. Located between metro Denver and Colorado Springs, Douglas became the fastest growing county in the United Stes during the 1990's. Susan Appleby's book seeks to to record, preserve, and celebrate the county's disappearing heritage.

"Fading Past in hand, Douglas Countians today and tomorrow are well armed to preserve and even reconstruct a fascinating heritage of Indians and cowboys, of stage drivers and railroaders, of quarries and lumbermen, of one-room school teachers and women ranchers, of saloonkeepers and general store tenders. Such a past should not keep fading away, but be there to comfort the old-timers and to greet thousands of new families rushing to Colorado's fast-growing twenty-first century frontier."

—Thomas J. Noel
