legends of the pikes peak region the sacred myths of the manitou
If nature in fantastic play has made Colorado the worlds wonderland, much more has man through centuries written and rewritten its fading pages with the mysteries of immemorial myths, legends, and traditions. From Pikes Peak to Popocatepetl the land is a palimpsest, dotted with ruins of remotest antiquity, the relics of the people whose records are replete with poetry and strange romance. Their manuscripts enrich the archives of Mexico and Madrid, and yet we learn but little of them. They moulder in the missions of the suspicious Spanish priests, or among the mystic treasures of the Pueblos, and are decaying unread. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.
