Enos A. Mills of the Rockies

Enos A. Mills of the Rockies - Esther Burnell Mills & Hildegarde Hawthorne.  The only biography on Enos A. Mills available in paperback.  Contains exerpts of Enos' writings, nineteen photographs from the Enos Mills Cabin archives, and a letter from Hildegarde Hawthorne.  From the New York Times Book review: "Enos Mills, like John Muir, is associated with the western mountains of the United States and with the preservation of forests and natural life of all kinds...beginning when, at 14, he set forth from the family home in Kansas for the Rockies, a goal he had long dreamed of reaching. The building of his little cabin in sight of Long's Peak near Estes Park... He tried mining at Butte and after a long period traveling and exploring on the Pacific Coast, where he met Muir, and a lifelong friendship began. He was 'Colorado Snow Observer' for some time, and it was during his many mountaineerng trips in that State that he took his famous ride on an avalanche, ending up, after 800 feet, safe on the shore of Chasm Lake. His efforts on behalf of the national parks fill the last part of the book. Throughout there are delightful bits of description of Mills's observation of wild life--how he watched the beavers cutting trees in the night, near his first little cabin, and brought up a family of bluebirds when the parents were killed... This accurate and straightforward account of the author's life will increase the number of those who enjoy his books."  Click here to read "Chapter One: the Call of the Rockies".   Paperback $19.95  200 pages.

Enos A. Mills: Author, Speaker, Nature Guide - Edited by Esther Burnell Mills, Elizabeth M. Mills and Eryn V. Mills. "It is only a pamphlet of fewer than 40 pages that is sent out by the Long's Peak Trail Bookstore, but it gives many particulars of the life of Colorado's naturalist guide and author, Enos Mills, and it should be a welcome addition to every Colorado library. The leading subdivision of the little volume is a long article from the pen of Arthur Chapman, which appeared originally in Country Life, and which is largely biographical. In this sketch Mr. Chapman tells much about the beginning and continuance of Mr. Mills' life work and then follow various newspaper extracts covering particular experiences or characteristics. The booklet is well written and neatly printed and carries a good picture of its subject." A Review of "Enos A. Mills: Author, Speaker, Nature Guide" by The Trail, August, 1921. Paperback. $17.95 72 Pages.
