A picture book of famous "Western" charatcers, places, and events, written by a columnist for the Denver Post. A very mediocre book...not comprehensive in either text, photos, or inclusiveness. The author seems to have based his decision to include or exclude a person based on whether they ever passed through Denver, and some of the places he includes would be of interest only to people who lived in Denver. It's neat to see some of the photos, but for most entries there is usually only one big photo, and the text accompanying the photo is often limited on accuracy and long on conjecture and opinion. If someone should give you this book for free, it's mildly interesting to spend a couple of leisure hours perusing it, but it's not worth buying for more than a buck.
There is an interesting and amusing story and photo in here about Richard Nixon, though. FWIW
