"Texas: Amazing but True" by Jack Maguire

Only Jack Maguire could come up with 36 obscure Texas stories that captivate, lure and delight the reader. "Texas: Amazing but True" relates that Texas may not own its capitol; that Rice University resulted from a murder; that a Texan designed and flew an airplane two years before the Wright brothers; that Marshall, Texas was the capitol of Missouri; and on and on.Maguire's writing is concise and moving. The ending came to soon. I wished for another 36 stories.Richard K. TroxellAuthor, "Barbecuing Around Texas" email rkt@fbg.net
