Ought to Be Required Reading

This book ought to be required reading for everyone wanting to live in Texas! It's a guide to pronunciation (truck is pronounced pik-um-up) complete with an annotated history of the state, short histories (or his stories, at any rate) of all the major and some minor cities, a few legends and tall tales (though sometimes it's hard to tell the difference between the histories and the legends), and great drawings. But whether you're moving there or just visiting, it's great reading. You'll laugh as you learn and learn as you laugh. Don't pass it up!
