“Explosion of Prosperity, A History of Broken Bow Lake, Beavers Bend State Park and Hochatown” is available at Hochatime with free shipping.

Thanks to Jessica Alkirwi, Kim Kennedy and the wonderful staff at Hochatime for the warm welcome. I’ve had a blast signing lots of books and talking to many tourists recently. It’s been a pleasure seeing scores of cabin owners and people like me that grew up near Broken Bow Lake.

My co-author, Bob Burke and I had a wonderful time writing the book. We take you on a journey that has a few laughs, great photography and in-depth analysis of the tourism boom.
