Dan Baum
5:00 pm
You know them for the beer and the sports arena, but do you really know the story of the family and their company that, in the eyes (and tastebuds) of so many Americans, practically defines the state of Colorado? Dan Baum, former staff reporter for the Wall Street Journal, serves up the saga of this highly influential family in
Citizen Coors: an American Dynasty
(Morrow $27.00). Baum tells the story of Adolph Coors, the Prussian stowaway and his descendents who made their fortune in America the old fashioned way - a true dedication to their product. Along the way they created the Heritage Foundation, battled scandal and suicide and triumphed over billions of their competition's advertising dollars. Pick up a copy of this fascinating American story and meet the author. While you're here, have a beer on us!

John Gierach
1:00 pm
The Chinook is pleased to host fly-fishing enthusiast and darn fine writer John Gierach for a signing in celebration of his new book,
Standing in a River Waving a Stick
(Fireside $13.00). Gierach, author of ten previous books on the sport, including
Dances with Trout
and
Trout Bum
, starts in his familiar home territory of Colorado, then heads north to the rivers of Canada to try his luck in his newest collection of essays. Whether studying the hatching patterns of flies, the local fauna (including human) or philosophy, Gierach's work is pithy, smart and graceful - kind of like fly-fishing. Come meet this Lyons, Colorado author and pick up a copy of his terrific new book.
