Excellent coffee table book. Stunning large format photographs. Liked it even though I've never been to Colorado.

The book was in excellent shape. I have often admired the book seen in the homes of friends but never thought I would find such a great deal. As a Colorado history buff whose father had several glass negatives of W.H. Jackson photos the buy was a real find and a treasure for me.

This book is a great coffee table book. I spend hours comparing the photo's my great-grandfather took when the west was young, with the current ones taken by John Fielder. His care in getting the exact spot where William Henry Jackson took his photographs makes the comparisions fascinating. Impressive change in some cases and very little in others. It's lots of fun to see two sets of great photographs.
The photographer, John Fielder, loves Colorado and his lectures make one feel as though he knows every inch of it. This large leather-bound book exemplifies our State and was given to my adult daughter and her spouse, who spent a large part of Christmas day reading and viewing it. If the reader is not privileged to live in CO - this is an excellent pictorial of the beauty, then and now, of Colorado.
Awesome pictorial view of my home state hard to put down images of past and present show so much detail
