Once again the great knowledge about southwest Colorado gleaned by Howard Greager from fifty or more years of personal interviews with the area's "oltimers""oldtimers" has manifested itself in book form. With the help of at least a dozen authors about the Utes in early Colorado, he obtains enough background information to form a nucleus for the blending of the many true historical events that he has tucked away in his memory. It is almost magical how the mind, once the association fibers begin their chain of connections, makes the needed bits of stored material available.
By researching the works of the authors who wrote the bulk of Ute history - and by thir very kind permission to use those works -this book was made possible. Because the Ute people did not have a written language until the twentieth century, the only available history of them is that which was written by the white man.
