Rogers, Arkansas
Winner of the Arkansas Press Women’s Book Award for nonfiction, this pictorial history of the town of Rogers shows the changes from a row of shops along a dirt street in the late 1880s to today’s thriving metropolis along Interstate 540. “With growth come challenges, one of which is protecting the historic fabric of the community. The first chapter of this book is devoted to the people and organizations that are working hard to see that Rogers does not lose its past. One of those organizations is, of course, the Rogers Historical Museum. And one of those people is Marilyn Collins, the author of this pictorial history.
