After The Civil War
My hometown, Colorado Springs, was not founded till after the Civil War. General Palmer and his wife Queenie founded it and the General was a Union General. But, a man here in our city has documents that talk about Rebel soldiers coming into this town and they had to be dealt with. He only gave a sneak preview of what he has written, so I will be looking forward to it when he shares all. There was also something about Texans coming in to steal gold from our fair city. So, this is going to be a great read. I'll keep you posted.
