  • Hoover Dam) on the Colorado River Nearby in the 1930S Brought the Electric Power and Water on Which the Modern Metropolis Depends
    The Rockies • The Rocky Mountains , commonly known as the Rockies, are a major mountain range in western North America. The Rocky Mountains stretch more than 3,000 miles (4,830 km) from the northernmost part of British Columbia, in western Canada, to New Mexico, in the southwestern United States. The Rockies are somewhat distinct from theCascade Range and Sierra Nevada which all lie farther to the west. • Currently, much of the mountain range is protected by public parks and forest lands, and is a popular tourist destination, especially for hiking, camping, mountaineering, fishing, hunting, mountain biking, skiing, and snowboarding. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocky_Mountains The Rockies • Apart from the Ancestral Puebloan cliff-dwellers, who lived in southern Colorado until around 1300 AD, most Native Americans in this region were nomadic hunters. They inhabited the western extremities of the Great Plains, the richest buffalo-grazing land in the continent. • Only after the territory was sold to the US in 1803 as part of the Louisiana Purchase was it thoroughly charted, starting with the Lewis and Clark expedition that traversed Montana and Idaho in 1805. As a result of the team’s reports of abundant game, the fabled “ mountain men ” had soon trapped the beavers here to the point of virtual extinction. They left as soon as the pelt boom was over, however, and permanent white settlement did not begin until gold was discovered near Denver in 1858. • Within a decade, speculators were plundering every accessible gorge and creek in the four states in the search for valuable ores. The construction of transcontinental rail lines and the establishment of vast cattle ranches to feed the mining camps led to the slaughter of millions of buffalo, and conflict with the Native Americans became inevitable.

  • 2018-Primary-Sources-Catalogue-2
    Last year, after 20 years of focused collecting in a very specific slice of Americana, we issued our first catalogue, and we want to thank all of our new friends, clients, and colleagues who made it a success--successful enough, at any rate, for there to be a Catalogue 2. Like Catalogue 1, our second contains twenty-five items with important stories to tell, stories that range widely across the American experience: from the risk book of a London underwriter during the War of 1812 to the only military encounter between the United States and Texas, from an unrecorded broadside that captures the birth of San Francisco to a revolution in women’s fashion; from an iconic view of Harvard University to the diary of a young teacher in Reconstruction-era Nashville; and from the poignant words of a young African American cadet unjustly dismissed from West Point to the plainspoken narrative of an elderly woman writing of her captivity as a child. Whether manuscript diaries, ledgers, and letters, printed pamphlets and broadsides, photographs, or even a children’s spelling book, they all contribute new ways of seeing and thinking about the broader currents of American history. Our name is what they have in common. They are primary sources, and they are largely uncharted. This fall, like last, we offer a new catalogue with twenty-five unexpected items, fresh to the trade. So thanks again to everyone who supported our first effort, and we hope that you enjoy browsing Catalogue 2. We look forward to hearing from you. -- All items are offered subject to prior sale.

  • Senior Seminar on the Wealth and Well-Being Of
    Senior Seminar on The Wealth and Well-Being of Nations: Each year, seniors in the department of economics participate in a semester-long course that is built around the ideas and influence of that year’s Upton Scholar. By the time the Upton Scholar arrives in October, students will have read several of his or her books and research by other scholars that has been influenced by these writings. This advanced preparation provides students the rare opportunity to engage with a leading intellectual figure on a substantive and scholarly level. Endowed Student Internship Awards: A portion of the Miller Upton Memorial Endowments supports exceptional students pursuing high-impact internship experiences. Students are encouraged to pursue internships with for-profit firms and non-profit research organizations dedicated to advancing the wealth and well-being of nations. Charles G. Koch Student Research Colloquium and Speaker Series: With generous support from the Charles G. Koch Charitable Foundation, the department has initiated a research colloquium that gives students the opportunity to read and discuss seminal articles aimed at deepening their understanding of the market process. Students also develop original analysis that applies economic ideas to novel contexts. Colloquium participants receive close mentoring as they craft an article with the eventual goal of publication in a newspaper, magazine, or academic journal. The themes of the research colloquium and annual forum are supported with a speaker series featuring the next generation of scholars working on questions central to our understanding of the nature and causes of wealth and well-being. Annual Proceedings of The Wealth and Well-Being of Nations: The keynote address presented by the Upton Scholar is an important contribution to the public discourse on the nature and causes of wealth and well-being.

  • Albert & Louise Ordean
    Albert & Louise Ordean The Founders of the Ordean Foundation LBERT ORDEAN LIVED A STORIED LIFE, yet following his death he was described as Aa “man nobody seemed to know” who could appear “cold and indifferent” to those who were not acquainted with him. After a legendary start in banking among the lawless mining camps of Colorado, he would move to Duluth, Minnesota, and become a suc- cessful businessman and banker, friend of presidents and business tycoons, so revered and trusted he was called upon to save the grain industry when the nation underwent a financial panic. In private life, he and his wife Louise gave generously to myriad social causes, most often those supporting children and the poor. In Duluth, they would come to personify the idea of noblesse oblige, a spirit that lives on today through the work of the Ordean Foundation.

  • Crested Butte
    2017 Crested Butte LOVING IT TO DEATH Class papers BE100 FYE: Ecology and Human Impacts in the Rocky Mountains Fall 2017 Professor: Emilie Gray Colorado College 1 Introduction Greg Shea Colorado College Known as “the gateway to the Elk Mountains”, Crested Butte and its surrounding area are the ancestral home of the Native American Utes and sources of natural resources and beauty. The town was incorporated in 1880. Within a few years, Crested Butte had become a coal mining “company town” and mining of the area’s extensive bituminous and anthracite coal deposits grew over the next decade. This time period was also the beginning of the Colorado Silver Boom, which was fueled by a combination of the 1878 Bland-Allison Act and the 1890 Sherman Silver Purchase Act. In 1893, the boom became a bust when the Sherman Silver Purchase Act was repealed and silver prices plummeted (Bryan, 2012). Overnight, thriving mining towns became ghost towns. Crested Butte, however, survived due to its coal mining and coke production. By the turn of the century, Crested Butte boasted the third largest coal mine in Colorado and was producing the highest quality coal in the state (Crested Butte, 2017). However, its glory days were short lived. By the early 1950s, coal mining ceased and the railroad removed its tracks. Crested Butte’s population and economy declined. Perched at an elevation of 2,708 m, Crested Butte lies in the Elk Mountains 43 km north of Gunnison, connected by Colorado State Highway 135. The Slate River flows between Mount Crested Butte, Mount Emmons, and Whetstone Mountain.
