The Settling of the Old West, Once and For All

By Martha Quillen

The other day someone at the library asked me a history question that I knew Ed could have answered easily. But calling Ed is no longer an option. Every day I find at least half a dozen new reasons for missing Ed, but this was not merely about my sorrow at losing him.

Thankfully, Ed was not the only Colorado history buff around, so I called someone else. But it occurred to me that the regional historians I rely upon are not young anymore, either.
