Trade Review"All this makes Durango a twofer for readers--an enjoyable story and an education in water storage politics. —The Denver Post "After reading a couple hundred pages of Hart's prose, I'm left with the image of a thoughtful, reasonable and intelligent man with a love and appreciation for open spaces and the great outdoors." —The Durango Herald "Former Colorado Sen.
