- Summary
- Most people have some idea of what pioneer life was like for those settling the American West from history books, novels and movies. Yet few have learned about Western settlement from the pioneers themselves, in their own words.
- Taking this new tack is In Other Words, a collection of oral histories about life in the old West from the Pioneer era to Prohibition, as told by those who experienced it. Maria Rogers culled taped interviews of more than 180 men and women who lived in Colorado in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to present this kaleidoscope of impressions and memories that tell a uniquely American story.
