Discover Denver’s Historic Homes

Nov. 21, 2013 - PRLog -- The newest addition to Arcadia Publishing’s popular Images of America series is Denver’s Historic Homes by Amy B. Zimmer. The book boasts more than 200 vintage images of the magnificent homes of Denver.

Images of America: Denver’s Historic Homes provides a mere introduction into the myriad of architectural styles and the unique blending of cultures that have made the Rocky Mountain region so remarkable, from the city’s inception as a mining claim to what it has become today.

From itinerantly used sod and log homes to mansions that rivaled the grandest of their period, Denver’s eclectic gathering of early residents produced a landscape of architectural monuments that attest to the people’s needs, desires, values and occasional eccentricities.

Highlights of Denver’s Historic Homes include:

·     •   A collection of rare, vintage images culled from private collections, local libraries and museums.

·       •     The book features over 200 Denver houses.

·       •     Showcases many houses that have been lost, as well as today’s historic landmarks.

Available at area bookstores, independent retailers, and online retailers, or through Arcadia Publishing at (888)-313-2665 or online.
