About the event
Come join us for this free program by local author, history enthusiast, and philanthropist Dennis Niewoehner. He'll be telling us about new book The Cowboy and the Rose, a love story set in beautiful Douglas County. Writing this fiction novel (inspired by a true story) required Dennis to call upon his deep knowledge of Douglas County. As he puts it, "There's something about this land---the buttes, the cottonwoods, the clear mornings---that feeds the soul. When I write about it, I'm not inventing anything. I'm just putting words to what I see and feel every day." Dennis has long been involved in preserving history in Parker and in Parker's public life. Time permitting, can also share his recollections from the 1980s when Parker first became an incorporated town.
