Lohse¿s seventh Colorado biography covers the larger-than-life story of Spencer Penrose¿mining magnate, developer, philanthropist, and so much more. Born in Philadelphia in 1865 to a patrician family, he was the fourth of seven sons. Following a lackluster career at Harvard, he started a business in New Mexico and eventually joined the Colorado real estate business of Charley Tutt, a childhood acquaintance. The business owned the C.O.D. Mine in Cripple Creek. It was the beginning of a successful partnership that eventually included copper mines in Utah, the source of much of Penrose¿s wealth. With his wealth, Penrose dreamed and built and enjoyed life with his wife, Julie. Among his projects was an automobile road to the summit of Pikes Peak, a rodeo arena, polo grounds, the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, the Will Rogers Shrine of the Sun, and The Broadmoor Hotel. From his wealth came the El Pomar Foundation that for almost eighty years, has benefitted non-profit organizations and individuals in Colorado. The El Pomar Foundation¿s mission¿to enhance, encourage, and promote the well-being of the people of Colorado¿reflects the values and intentions of Spencer and Julie Penrose. Penrose¿s legacy is seen in buildings and institutions throughout El Paso County and his generosity is felt today throughout Colorado. Penrose¿s life story is compelling, and Joyce Lohse has told it well.

Book excerpt: Spencer Penrose, a mining magnate, tourism developer, and philanthropist, purchased the Turkey Creek Ranch (5EP836) near Colorado Springs, Colorado, in 1912. Penrose became a local ranching leader through his raising of purebred Holsteins and exotic sheep at Turkey Creek Ranch. He also kept wild animals, some of which became the basis for his Cheyenne Mountain Zoo. Using the services of local high-style architects MacLaren and Thomas, Penrose built an impressive Spanish Revival style residence and numerous outbuildings at the Ranch in 1912-1913. Improvements continued at the Ranch until Penrose's death in 1939. The Turkey Creek Ranch district, which has been determined eligible to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places, consists of 8 historically significant buildings and 13 other buildings or structures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early days on the Colorado frontier, women took care of family and neighbors because accepting that were all in this together was the only realistic survival strategyon the high plains, along the Front Range, in the mountain towns, and on the Western Slope. As dangerous occupations became fundamental to Colorados economy, if they were injured or got sick there was no one to care for the young men who worked as miners, steel workers, cowboys, and railroad construction workers in remote parts of Colorado. So physicians, surgeons, nurses, Catholic Sisters, Reform and Orthodox Jews, Protestants, and other humanitarians established hospitals andwhen Colorado became a mecca for people with tuberculosissanatoriums. Those pioneers and the communities they served created our community-based humanitarian healthcare tradition. These stories about our Wild West heritage honor the legacy of our 19th-century healthcare pioneers and will inspire and entertain 21st-century readers. Because we can be inspired only if we understand the factsand because facts are more likely to be understood when presented in contextthis chronology includes national and international developments that establish an indispensable frame of reference for understanding how our pioneers created the local-community-based healthcare system that weve inherited.
