Booksigning at Marcum's

The Norman Transcript

Transcript Staff

Scott Weeden will sign copies of his first novel, "High Times and Low Lifes at the Sand Bar Town Saloons" 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at Goldsby.

Weeden is a 1966 graduate of Washington High School and a 1973 graduate of Oklahoma State University. He received a bachelor of science degree in journalism from OSU. He is a Vietnam veteran and served in the US Army November 1967 to August 1970.

The book is based loosely around the Sand Bar Saloon, which was built in the middle of the South Canadian River in 1889 after the first land run. Each chapter begins with a quote from "The Purcell Register" of that time.

Much of the history in the books comes from stories in the newspaper as well as the history written by Joyce Rex at the McClain County Historical Museum as well as other books.

The Weedens were a pioneer family in McClain County. Cherie and Bill Marcum are hosting the booksigning at their nursery at the Goldsby exit off I-35.
