Autographed copy sticker on front cover. Signed by the author with sentiment [Cheers] on the title page. Slight sticker residue noted on fr…ont cover. Thomas Jacob Noel, (born 6 May 1945 in Boston, Massachusetts) often introduced in media interviews as Dr. Colorado, is an American historian specializing in the history of the Rocky Mountain West, and especially of the state of Colorado. Noel is a graduate of the University of Denver (B.A. history and M.A. library science). He received an M.A. and Ph.D. in history from the University of Colorado Boulder. He is a professor of history at the University of Colorado at Denver, where he teaches classes in the history of the American West, Colorado, Denver, historic preservation, mining and railroads, national parks, and Western art and architecture. He is the co-author or author of more than fifty books, numerous articles, and newspaper columns. He is the director of the Center for Colorado Studies at the Denver Public Library. Noel won a Colorado Book Award in 1997 among numerous other awards. Noel leads walking, railroading, and motor-coach tours for various groups including The Colorado Historical Society and The Smithsonian. He chaired the Denver Landmark Preservation Commission and served as a National Register reviewer for Colorado. Extracts from a 1999 review by Ed Quillen for the Colorado Central Magazine: This book isn't exactly history and it's not quite a guidebook, although it contains strong elements of both. It's more like a collection of the lore you would hear if you embarked upon a tour of the saloons, taverns, roadhouses, lounges, dives, gin mills, tap rooms, and bars of Colorado, and somehow remained sober enough to remember the tales, some of them doubtless true or true enough. Tom Noel, a professor of history at the University of Colorado at Denver, took on this challenge for all of Colorado after cataloging all 500 or so saloons in Denver. There he discovered that any book is a snapshot saloons frequently come and go, so that the author always misses a few, and other accounts are obituaries by the time they appear in print. His research method, which I was privileged to observe, involved grabbing a local informant if possible, then a night of bar-hopping, with Tom always scribbling notes on 3 x5 cards. These became the basis for the book. It is organized alphabetically by towns, from Alamosa to Yampa, and Noel's research extends from the Victorian splendors with gorgeous backbars which were in operation long before Prohibition to modern operations. Some Colorado guides focus only on the small mountain towns, but Noel gives Denver, Colorado Springs, and Pueblo their full due, and does not stint on the High Plains. There's hard-drinking Leadville, where the Manhattan "is so rough that the regulars chew on their beer bottles," and "the beer signs are more than the decor; they also provide the lighting and help hold the roof up. The Manhattan also has the other essential ingredient for a saloon: shiftlessness." One of my favorites, the Owl Cigar Store in Cañon City (still serves malts the old-fashioned way, and its hamburgers make no concession to the health craze) gets nearly a full page. I was curious about the tin ceilings in many handsome old saloons, such as Salida's Victoria Tavern. They look good, but they're hell on acoustics when there's a band. That's by design, Noel explains since there were hotel rooms upstairs in many such establishments, and people wanted to sleep despite any revelry downstairs, the tin ceilings were designed to reflect the sound downward. This is a fine book, witty and humane, about those Colorado places "where everybody knows your name." Indeed, Colorado began in such a place the first effort at organizing the territory, then split among Kansas, Nebraska, Utah, and New Mexico, began in Dick Wooten's saloon in what is now Denver.
