From a review in a local Colorado Magazine (https://coloradocentralmagazine.com/buena-vistas-tales-from-the-past-by-suzy-kelly/):
OVER THE YEARS, one bright spot in the weekly Chaffee County Times of Buena Vista was Suzy Kelly’s column of local lore. Often she focused on some historic landmark, explaining how it came to be there. Or she would expand on the life and family of a recently departed old-timer, or she would pick up on something from the past that you might have heard about and wanted to know more about.
Kelly has now compiled about 75 of these columns into a handsome book, profusely illustrated with old photos. It’s organized by topics — the town, mining, ghost towns, railroads, etc. — and covers just about everything I’d ever wondered about the rich past of the Buena Vista area.
The Lake County War gets a decent treatment, for instance, as does the ice business which once thrived there. (Blocks of ice were cut from ponds in the winter, and stored for use to refrigerate produce being shipped by rail the next summer.)
