The roll call of Colorado governors is varied and rich, including men "determined and dilatory, successful and unsuccessful, lucky and unlucky," with each administration contributing to the fabric of Colorado's colorful history. In this collection of short biographies, now updated to include three of Colorado's most recent state administrators, former governor Dick Lamm and prolific historian Duane Smith portray the lives and accomplishments of thirteen Colorado governors. From the fiery and feisty Davis Waite to the forgotten hero Ralph Carr, all the way up to Roy Romer and Bill Owens, each distinct personality and time period is brought to life. Wich lively writing and telling anecdotes, Pioneers & Politicians is a first-rate resource as well as a great read.
