Hampton Sides, who serves at the helm of Colorado College’s one-year-old Journalist-in-Residence Program, has a new tribute. His most recent book, “In the Kingdom of Ice,” was selected as an All Pikes Peak Reads book for 2015.

The program, sponsored by the Pikes Peak Library District, is a community-wide effort to improve literacy and foster dialogue across social, cultural, and generational lines. The program begins in September and runs through the fall.
