<p><b>Follow Denver's history from a mining town to a booming city through photographs of well-known locations as they once stood, and what they look like today</b></p><p>This new edition, containing a host of local landmarks as they once looked, alongside the same viewpoint photographed today, has been extensively revised from the original version with new sites, new text, and additional photos.
