High Praise from a Native Texan

I took classes from the author, Don Graham, and from his wife, Betsy Berry, during my years at the University of Texas at Austin. They were two of the best classes I took, and if you read this book, you'll see why. Graham's storytelling is intelligent and witty without losing any of the southern charm you would expect from a good Texas boy. He effortlessly communicates his enthusiasm for the subject matter. Being a Texan, I may be biased, but I highly recommend this book. Even if you've never been to Texas, and perhaps especially if you've never been to Texas, it's an entertaining and smart read.
