SynopsisWhen prospectors set up camp on Cherry Creek in 1858, Denver emerged as a lightning rod for the extraordinary. Time has washed away so many unusual stories from the dark days of nineteenth century Law and Order League lynchings and the KKK s later rise and fall to the heroism of suffragettes and the touching plight of the gypsies. Elizabeth Wallace knocks the dust off these details and introduces readers to characters like world heavyweight boxing champion Charles L. Sonny Liston, hit-man turned rodeo promoter Leland Varain, aka Diamond Jack, and the city s daring wall dogs, whose hand-painted building advertisements are fading reminders of a bygone Denver.", When prospectors set up camp on Cherry Creek in 1858, Denver emerged as a lightning rod for the extraordinary.
