The Author
Caroline Bancroft is a third generation Coloradan who began writing her first history for The Denver Post in 1928.
Her long-standing interest in western history was inherited. Her pioneer grandfather, Dr. F. J. Bancroft, was a founder of the Colorado Historical Society and its first president.
His granddaughter has carried on the family tradition. She is the author of the interesting series of Bancroft Booklets, Silver Queen: The Fabulous Story of Baby Doe Tabor, Famous Aspen, Denver’s Lively Past, Historic Central City, The Brown Palace in Denver, Tabor’s Matchless Mine and Lusty Leadville, Glenwood’s Early Glamor, Augusta Tabor: Her Side of the Scandal, The Unsinkable Mrs. Brown, Unique Ghost Towns, Colorado’s Lost Gold Mines and Buried Treasure, and the basic, over-all history, Colorful Colorado.
