Book: Gold Trails & Cattle Tales
Synopsis: A career IBM-er and history enthusiast, Mark Easton spent five decades researching, traveling and interviewing any and every source that could shed light on his ancestors' incredible journey from Switzerland to the wilds of Colorado where gold prospecting turned to cattle ranching and taming the American West. With the assistance of like-minded writer Tom Lee (known to Moveable Feast audiences for his Revolutionary War "Patriot" series), a compelling tale is told, remarkable people brought to life, discoveries revealed, and personal reflections shared. It is hard to ignore the suggestion that, within each family, there are wonderful and surprising people and events to be uncovered. Mark shares his genealogical research and computer skills as a board member of the Georgetown County Museum, at this pivotal juncture in their historical celebrations of America's sestercentennial in 2026 and Lafayette's in 2027.
