Everything about Centennial Novel totally explained
Centennial was a novel written by
American author
James Michener and published in 1974.
Centennial traces the history of the plains of northeast
Colorado from prehistory until the early 1970s. Geographic details about the fictional town of Centennial and its surroundings indicate that the region is in modern-day
Weld County. Since the novel was written, the
Denver suburb of
Centennial, Colorado has been incorporated, although its location is far from Michener's fictional town of the same name.
Many episodes in the book are loosely based on actual historical events in eastern Colorado and southeast Wyoming, which for novelistic reasons are brought to a single locale. For example "The Massacre"-is based on the
Sand Creek Massacre which took place in
Kiowa County, Colorado in 1864. Other parts of the book are loosely based on a family from
Sterling, Colorado.
Centennial was made into a popular twelve-part television
miniseries also entitled
Centennial that aired on
NBC from October 1978 through February 1979.
