Carolyn and Clarence Wright lovingly wrote Tiny Hinsdale of the
Silvery San Juan after "intense work, research, and devotion to
task." First published in 1964, but out of print for many years,
this history of Hinsdale County is an exciting and delightful read
that captures the ups and downs of a rich mining area and the
subsequent booms and busts of the county and Lake City, its county
seat. Based on personal and family experiences, this book provides
an intimacy of culture and events that only those who have "lived
or shared the life" can portray. It also boasts many photographs of
a time-gone-by that can be found nowhere else. As the dust jacket
of the first edition of this title states, "No other persons could
have told the history of Hinsdale County from such personal
sources, and lovers of Western history will be grateful that the
Wrights have performed this labor of love. The ninety-four pictures
alone are an irreplaceable treasure."
