Casting the Cowboy State's Past
Wyoming's history is enshrined in the bronze sculptures lining Capitol Avenue and across Cheyenne. The idea, conceived only a decade prior, rapidly grew into the most successful public arts project in city history. Inspired by and committed to preserving the history of the state, private citizens donated bronze sculptures depicting important figures and contributions. Tribal leaders, explorers and governors are represented. The contributions of architects, artists and suffragettes are celebrated. And dedication to service in politics, agriculture and the military are honored. Authors Starley Talbott and Michael Kassel explore the state's rich past cast in bronze.
A freelance author for more than forty years, Starley Talbott has authored ten books and numerous columns for a variety of newspapers and magazines. Michael E. Kassel, an author and adjunct professor of history at Laramie County Community College, serves as the curator of collections and the co-director of the Cheyenne Frontier Days Old West Museum.
