A biography of the Colorado artist Allen Tupper True (1881-1955). Based on letters, diaries, and contemporary news accounts as well as family history, it describes his artistic evolution from illustrator to easel painter to muralist.
This first difinitive biography of the Colorado artist is lavishly illustrated with images of his murals (both extant and destroyed), along with his major easel paintings, sketches, and cartoons. "His groundbreaking murals of Western Vistas...served as giant documentaries about a disappearing way of life."--Ray Rinaldi, Denver Post
