The West, Old and New, Brought to
Life in Verse and Writing
This is the official site for Dave P. Fisher - Cowboy Poet and Writer.
You'll find information here about him, his books and Western novels, Western Short Stories,
Cowboy Poems, and outdoor magazine articles, in addition to his performance schedule.
Dave proudly makes his home in the great state of Nevada
where history still lives and folks keep it alive.
************************************************************
The western movement during the 19th century played a huge part in the history of America. Here was born the mountain man, cowboys, gunfighters, outlaws, and the lawmen who tamed them. It was a land where honor, and right over wrong was held to as dearly as a man’s word and his handshake. It wasn’t a myth, as some claim it was, it really happened, the old west was an historical fact.
Dave has successfully captured the people and culture of the era with accuracy to detail and its
history. Hours of research, walking the very ground where it happened, and his years as a
working cowboy are all part of his stories. Your senses will live the action in every page.
While you’re at the Double Diamond you will learn why Dave’s stories will have you walking in the characters boots rather than just reading a book. Here are stories to be read aloud and
novels to keep you turning the pages.
Dave's cowboy poetry comes in a unique form in that he tells stories of the old and new West in meter and rhyme. Most of it tends to be humorous, finding the nature and flaws in his cowboy culture, and sharing it with his audiences in a spirit of good fun. Then he will turn tale and give you something serious in regards to the things cowboys hold most dear in their lives.

July 2009 Special Feature is:
Booger Red
We might all look like the same species, humans have two arms,
two legs, one head (some people even use theirs),
but we all process information differently.
If you say, "over by the tree" each one of us will think of
a different tree. One a pine, a second sees a maple,
the next guy pictures an aspen.
Just as it is when we hear a story of something that we have
never actually seen, but eventually we draw a
picture in our minds as to what the subject of the story is.
So it is, with Booger Red.
