The Cripple Creek Labor Wars, 1903-1904 A Centennial Commemoration

Pikes Peak Library District, Multimedia and Production Studio

eAudio - June 2004

Commemorating the centennial of the Cripple Creek Labor Wars, 1903-1904, this audio program recalls the causes and consequences of one of the era's violent labor strikes that spread throughout the Colorado mine fields. The program contains presentations during the June 5, 2004, symposium at Pikes Peak Library District, Colorado Springs, Colorado, and is intended to contribute to the scholarship regarding the events that occurred in the Cripple Creek District during the Colorado Labor Wars. A "must" for those interested in labor history, mining, and a time when the Western Federation of Miners asked, "Is Colorado in America?"
