Rocky Mountain High

This book is the major source for both artistic and historical information about Adams, widely considered to be Colorado's finest impressionist landscape painter. Adams is best known for his stunning views of snowy mountain peaks in early morning or sunset light, or wreathed in storm clouds, and for his luminous twilight and sunset paintings of the river bottoms near Denver. For sample photos from this book, photos of his paintings, and additional information, see the Adams website, charles partridgeadams.com

This is a good overall view of his work.

My wife and I have one of his watercolor paintings. It was in an old antique shop. It is a mountain stream painting with mountain background.
