ISBN: 9781450289238

Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Archaeologists and historians have long known that houses whisper about their past. There is one such house in Pine Valley, north of Colorado Springs, Colorado. It's now the permanent residence of the presiding Commandant of Cadets of the U.S. Air Force Academy. But this house, its history, inhabitants, neighbors, and the community involvement of those people give a unique and almost time-lapse view of the history of Colorado Springs and the U.S. Air Force Academy. From frontier buffalo hunting and Indian raids in the Pikes Peak region to the U.S. Air Force Academy today, Pine Valley ties the events to the three successive owners of the home. Author Hester-Jane Cogswell narrates the story of the people and incidents that shaped Colorado Springs, including details about the early Jewel City of Pikes Peak, backgrounds of the Lennox and Otis families, and information about Pine Valley neighbors and families. Through early letters, photos, diaries, and interviews conducted by Cogswell, Pine Valley presents a unique and personal history of the beautiful and fascinating Pikes Peak region.

Pine Creek Villages
Author: David Ira Kagan

Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Pine Creek Village depicts the engaging history of this community. Pioneer settlers began arriving in Pine Creek Valley after the Revolutionary War, drawn to the pristine wilderness filled with towering white pines and hemlocks. In the 1880s, descendants of those settlers began extensive lumbering operations aided greatly by the arrival of the railroad through the valley. Additional logging railroads were rapidly constructed up the tributary runs to the great stands of trees. Pine Creek's villages flourished, with both large and small sawmills buzzing. Around 1910, when the great lumbering days ended, many of the village populations plummeted. Throughout the 20th century and into today, the area remains a popular tourist destination for fishing, hunting, and outdoor enthusiasts.
