More about the book

Focusing on the life of Charles Strausenback, the narrative chronicles his deep connection to the Garden of the Gods, starting from his childhood in 1900 when he sold gypsum figures. As he grew, he operated various curio stores in the area, ultimately realizing his dream in 1929 with the establishment of the Trading Post. This venue not only served as a marketplace but also employed local Navajo and Pueblo Indians, preserving their crafts and culture. The Trading Post stands today as Colorado's oldest continuously operated trading post, embodying a rich historical legacy.
