In Dennis' words: "Meet the Man from Hobbtown is a record of my life, written now when, at the present date, I am eighty-eight years old. After being asked many times by my two daughters, Pamela (Smith) Hill, of Portland, Oregon, and Angela Smith, of Springfield, Missouri, I have finally yielded to their wishes and put in print a great part of my life. I have not done this for any financial benefit, but I hope that my entire family will appreciate this history, which has its start in the year I was born, December 11, 1929."

The e-book version of this book was published posthumously. Dennis joined his beloved wife, Carolyn Smith, on August 31, 2023, after eight months apart. The family has opted to publish the book for free for anyone who wishes to know more about this incredible man.
