Seller's Description:
Very Good in Very Good jacket. Size: 9x1x12; Tom Noel, a.k.a. Dr. Colorado, takes the reader for a ride through the ranching history of Colorado, as well as the first century of the National Western Stock Show, Rodeo, and Horse Show. From Indians and buffalo, to hispanic ranchers, to rustlers, blizzards, overgrazing, dust storms, and environmentalists, every aspect of ranching is covered. Inscribed "For Marty Flug, Joyeux Noel from Bob & Mrya". Thomas J. "Dr. Colorado" Noel, a Professor of History and Director of Public History, Preservation & Colorado Studies at University of Colorado Denver (CU Denver), is the author of more than fifty books, articles and columns. Tom is a graduate of the University of Denver, CU Denver and the University of Colorado at Boulder, where his mother (a psychiatrist) and grandmother (a teacher) also completed graduate work. Tom teaches Denver, Colorado, Heritage Tourism, Historic Preservation, Mining & Railroads, National Parks History, U.S. West, and Western Art & Architecture courses at CU Denver, as well as conducting tours of the highest state and the Mile High City for History Colorado. Tom also appears on Denver KUSA Channel 9's "Colorado & Company" as Dr. Colorado. He directs The Center for Colorado Studies at the Denver Public Library. Mr. Flug was, among many things, a Trustee of the Aspen Center for Physics, Life Trustee of the Aspen Music Festival and School. He was also a Benefactor of the Martin R. Flug Professorship of International Law, the Ernest Rubenstein Scholarship and the Samuel S. Flug Memorial Scholarship, all at Yale Law School, and of the Samuel S. and Evelyn R. Flug Scholarship Fund at Harvard College, Past Board Member and Officer of the Aspen Country Day School, Past Chairman of United Way of Rye, NY, Past President of Manursing Island Club, NY. In honor of his mother and his own dedication to children's education, he founded and supported the Evelyn R. Flug Children's Library in Aspen, and a private foundation to support experiments in education. But a simple even if impressively lengthy list of boards and titles does not capture his deep involvement and commitment to causes and activities he cared about. In Aspen, inspired by his early friendship with local newspaper publisher Bil Dunaway, Martin Flug reveled in mountain life with the same intensity he brought to all his endeavors. He bicycled all summer, including his iconic rides in Aspen's Fourth of July parades, dressed in an Uncle Sam suit. He skied with abandon every winter and was an early aficionado of uphill skiing, long before it enjoyed its current wave of popularity skiing up Buttermilk and then descending with glee. His skiing adventures extended to heli-skiing in Canada, where (as he loved to tell the story) he once brought an end to a season-long snow drought by leading his skiing party in an American Indian rain chant. At home in Aspen, his hospitality extended to a lengthy list of artists and intellects, most especially the musicians of the Aspen Music Festival and physicists visiting the Aspen Center for Physics. Hence, a unique association copy.
