In this revised edition  co-authors Carl Abbott  Stephen J. Leonard  and Thomas J. Noel incorporate more than a decade of new events  findings  and insights about Colorado in an accessible volume that general readers and students will enjoy.  The new edition tells of conflicts  new alliances  and changing ways of life as Hispanic  European  and African American settlers flooded into a region that was already home to Native Americans. Providing balanced coverage of the entire states history - from Grand Junction to Lamar and from Trinidad to Craig - the authors also reveal how Denver and its surrounding communities developed and gained influence.  While continuing to elucidate the significant impact of mining  agriculture  manufacturing  and tourism on Colorado  this new edition broadens its coverage. The authors expand their discussion of the twentieth century with several new chapters on the economy  politics  and cultural conflicts of recent years. In addition  they address changes in attitudes toward the natural environment as well as the contributions of women  Hispanics  African Americans  and Asian Americans to the state. Dozens of new illustrations  updated statistics  and an extensive bibliography of the most recent research on Colorado history enhance this edition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45272598970421,"sku":"ByrdShop_0870818007","price":65.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780870818004.jpg?v=1780482497","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/colorado-a-history-of-the-centennial-state-fourth-edition-9780870818004","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
