Join Denver author Sarah Hahn Campbell as she shares the history of Rocky Mountain National Park landmarks that are named for women. These stories are drawn from her meticulously researched local trail guide and history, Her Place on the Map: 18 Women and the Colorado Wonders Named for Them. We'll leave plenty of time for questions, and after the talk, our partner, Macdonald Book Shop, will have copies of the book for purchase and for Sarah to sign.
