About the speaker Writer Jan Westmore's new book, Images of America: Colfax, was published by Arcadia Publishing in January 2013. Images of America is a popular series of pictorial history books that include hundreds of vintage photos and illustrations.

It shows how the little communities linked up with Colfax." |
