Summary: The history of Cripple Creek, Colorado is that of many towns in the west, it started as a collection of a few small buildings that no one had heard of it. When gold was discovered, it boomed into a large city, decayed when the gold ran out and now the biggest industry is the influx of tourists interested in the golden years. This booklet is published primarily as a souvenir for those tourists, but the large number of photographs makes it of interest to everyone. Item #171761
