Inscribed "Gaylord Guenin Enjoy - Oct 4, 1995". Interviews with residents who lived in Aspen, Colorado between 1893 - 1947. Those Quiet Years were the years between prospecting and prosperity. With many black & white historical photographs, as well as photos of those interviewed. An important work on the history of Aspen and of Western Colorado. Guenin forever etched a place in Aspen history by co-authoring ?Aspen: The Quiet Years? with Kathleen Daily. The 1994 book chronicled the rich heritage of Aspen life after the silver boom was long gone but before the post-World War II rebirth as a ski resort. Guenin and Daily interviewed scores of Aspen residents, most of them seniors, with family ties back to the mining era. ?That was a timeless piece of work,? said Guenin?s longtime friend, George Stranahan, who founded the Mountain Gazette in Aspen with Guenin at the helm in the 1970s. He also wrote the ?Letter From Woody Creek? column for The Aspen Times, writing from the perspective of ?Woody Creatures.? A local of legendary status, he was also a bartender and manager of the Woody Creek Tavern when it was the frequent haunt of Hunter S. Thompson. Uncommon in this condition, with dustjacket; signed copies rarely offered.
