What began as a small mining camp during Colorado's silver boom in the late 19th century has since evolved into a favorite getaway for the global elite. Appreciated more for what lies above ground rather than below, Aspen, Colorado, has a history almost as dense as the list of notables who have adopted the Pitkin County gem as a second home or settled on its slopes indefinitely. Featuring a presentation by longtime resident Aerin Lauder, Aspen Style celebrates and pays homage to the unadulterated glamour, working-class history, and romance of the virtually untouched landscape that gives the town the unique charisma that continues to draw new devotees each season. Exploring the rustic-chic atmosphere of the Hotel Jerome, the architectural excellence of Herbert Bayer's restored Wheeler Opera House, and the local culture found at Schlomos Deli & Grill, to name a few, this lavish volume comes alive with stunning current and historical images that capture the prodigious evolution of this mountain town over the past century.
