Emma Crawford – Her Life and Legacy

Emma Crawford was said to be a celebrated concert pianist but has been much more celebrated in her death than in her life. The stories of her life, her love, her hauntings and her casket sliding down Red Mountain have created a cloud of devotion, of mystery, of cynicism, and of confusion.

It is the hope of this short book to sort fact from fiction, reality from apocrypha, and leave you, dear reader, with a sense of the woman, her times and how she has figured in the stories of Manitou Springs.
