Colorado Life, “Zebulon Pike” by Matt Masich, Nov/Dec 2015
A comic tragedy. I am impressed and entertained by Pike’s mission.

I thoroughly enjoyed the pacing of this piece and the rich details that brought the time period to life.

A very interesting story that has the feel of a good storyteller reminiscing.
