ROCKY MOUNTAIN EMPIRE

By

Pub Date: July 6th, 1950
ISBN: 054844014X
Publisher: Doubleday

A collection of stories from the Rocky Mountain Empire magazine section of the Denver Post representing regional journalism at its readable best. Local color as brilliant and distinctive as this region's topography and personalities. It's all here, the triumphs and disasters of the amazing little narrow gauge railroad, accounts of lost treasure and gentlemen bandits, good reportage on the winter life of isolated ranchers and the modern techniques of the ""Flying Farmers"", not to mention fish stories to end all tales of the-one-that-got-away. Sensational journalism but it's a sensational part of the country!
