Fort Collins

A History

By: Barbara Fleming

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

While today's Fort Collins is a popular destination for foodies and weekend adventurers, it was once a lonely military outpost poised on the nation's frontier. Cattle rustlers and trigger-happy cowboys walked an uneasy line between saloon doors and the hangman's noose. By 1895, Fort Collins had lost some of its gritty edge, and it became a dry town full of churches, sheep ranches and sugar beet farms. The city was again transformed over the past century into a community that embraced a thriving beer culture and green living. Local historian Barbara Fleming traces the story of the Choice City from its early pioneer days through its modern renaissance.

My Name Is Meggie

By: Barbara Allbrandt Fleming,Barbara F Fleming

Eager to discover the world beyond her small Colorado town, young Meggie Bowman leaves her home at the turn of the 20th century in search of adventure. Her quest first takes her to New Orleans, where her long-lost uncle may have last been seen. She goes on to Paris and rural France, living there through most of World War I. Upon returning to the United States she settles in New York City, opens an illegal birth-control clinic, becomes an active suffragette, and eventually attends law school, spending the rest of her working life as an attorney advocating for women's rights. A feminist before the word was coined, she lives the life she has chosen with only one regret-leaving her infant daughter to be raised by her parents, a choice she hopes to rectify in later years. My Name Is Meggie , a sequel to the author's historical novel, Journeying, presents the extraordinary life of a strong, independent woman at a time when women were struggling for respect and the freedom to live the lives they chose.

Fort Collins

The Miller Photographs

By: Barbara Fleming,Malcolm McNeill

Photographer Mark Miller opened his studio in Fort Collins, Colorado, in 1914. The town he chose to live and work in sits in a river valley in northern Colorado, nestled between the Rocky Mountain foothills and the semiarid high plains, with Denver to the south and Cheyenne, Wyoming, to the north. Established as a Civil War-era army post, the town was a Wild West frontier outpost until it was tamed in the 1870s by the arrival of a land-grant college and the railroad. By the turn of the century, Fort Collins had become a quietly respectable college town with a thriving economy and steadily increasing population. Over almost six decades, as the small town evolved into a city, Miller photographed people, businesses, and landscapes. Fort Collins: The Miller Photographs offers a representative sampling of the over 70,000 Miller images, a collection housed at the Fort Collins Museum's Local History Archive.
