"The history of the largest transmountain diversion project ever built - the Colorado-Big Thompson (C-BT) - designed to bring Colorado River water through a thirteen-mile tunnel under the Continental Divide to farmers in the South Platte River basin. The book also offers a detailed exploration of the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District (NCWCD), the agency created to oversee the design, construction, water delivery, and payment of the monumental C-BT. Using a wealth of sources - minutes, reports, speeches, memoranda, newspaper accounts, and interviews with NCWCD officials - Daniel Tyler presents a practical, hands-on story of construction, operation, and maintenance of a supplemental water delivery system. Tyler writes history that reflects the pros and cons of litigation and negotiation in water-conflict resolutions. His book is also a chronology of the struggle between disciples of water development and proponents of environmental causes, including many issues of relevance to other state and federal entities with a stake in western water"--P. [4] of cover.

(Soft-cover print) This book is a group of fantastic short stories from another planet. Ten completely new and different short stories within these pages describe a unique although not exactly human being, yet they are tales about more than just special people, the Martians. This is science fiction about not only space ships, but also about believable, extraordinary, extrasensory beings. In my stories I have tried to find not only Martian space ships but also the Martian mind. Mars is a planet that will always hold our fascination, even if we never leave the Earth.
