Gonna be a good by keen observer on Texas.
Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2017
A fairly fast read about the seven things that make Texas what it is. If you are from there, the book will make a lot of sense. If you aren't from there, you might find the book boring. The author covers up through the mid 1980s, but it's plenty sufficient to explain things.

Insightful and broad concepts attempt to discover and explain the growth and development of Texas' values and it's people. Excellent background for continuing study of Texas.
