John Milton Campbell arrived in Colorado in 1901, carrying a grip containing all his worldly possessions: clothes, a Kodak camera, books and papers, and a "whale of a big six-shooter." Over the next six years, he worked as a Denver & Rio Grande Railroad "boomer" in several Colorado towns, becoming friends with both respectable townsfolk and unsavory lawbreakers.
John wrote letters and numerous reminiscences about his Wild West Colorado adventures. Railroads, Rifles, and Ruffians is John's story, as told by his great-grandson. Extracts from John's memoirs-along with his photographs- tell John's tale with his own words and pictures.
Punch your ticket, hop on board, and prepare for a wild ride through the waning days of old Colorado.
