Idaho…it has one of the most colorful pasts of all the last-frontier states, and the color has not faded with the sunsets of yesteryear. Indeed, the bold pioneers who defied the mighty mountains and parched plains in quest of fortune—and new homes—left sharply etched, as if on stone, their marks of rugged individualism. And the only rubbing off has been on the people who live there today. Idaho is well worth knowing, for to know it is not only to understand how the West was won but why it was worth the winning.
