This is the FULL COLOR edition of the black and white edition, "A Victorian Mansion in the Colorado Rockies." The contents are identical. This book is an architectural and social history of a unique 19th century mansion. It tells the story of Estemere's owners and families and the various ways the house has been utilized from the time it was built. It has been the vacation home of a millionaire mine owner and operator, Eben Smith, and his family; hosted a summer school for a Kansas college; a camp for underprivileged girls; a weaving school for women during the New Deal; a tourist lodge; and several times a private residence. Townspeople, children, the socially prominent, business and religious leaders, laborers, students, and ordinary travelers-all have passed through her doors at one time or another and made the acquaintance of "Lady Estemere."
