Additional Details

The author was a physician who settled in Trinidad in 1867 not long after its founding, and quickly became a civic leader. This guidebook contains sections on history, mineral resources, manufacturing, livestock, and most of the county's towns. The section on officials lists Trinidad city marshals through 1881; Bartholemew "Bat" Masterson was appointed to that post in April 1882. None traced at auction; not in Graff, Howes, or Henkle's Colorado.
