About the book

"'Everyone was moving to Denver, which was mushrooming all over the prairie and giving every evidence of becoming a metropolis of real proportion." So recalls Elizabeth Young of her childhood on Colfax Avenue. Her youth ran parallel to that of her hometown: She grew up in the 1890s, in the midst of Denver's rapid metamorphosis from frontier town to modern city. Young's memoir provides glimpses of the people and events of this era, along with the adventuresome spirit that animated them. On Colfax Avenue captures the sense of joyful self-discovery that comes with childhood - both the author's, and Denver's."--BOOK JACKET.
