The Texas Spirit

By David M. Smith

In The Texas Spirit, David M. Smith has written a series of spirited and insightful essays about the chemical industry, events and personalities in his life, and his views on trends in the national economy and other aspects of American life that concern him. The zesty style, folksy humor, and unabashed candor combine in this admirable example of the "Texas Spirit."

Author David M. Smith is founder and owner of Chemical Exchange, Inc. and Texmark Chemicals of Galena Park Texas. He was born and raised in El Paso, Texas. He moved to San Antonio during the Korean War. David attended the University of Texas at Austin. Something of a "prodigal son," he moved east to Houston, where he vocationally established himself in the petrochemical industry. As David puts it, "while Petro Chemicals are my primary occupational vocation, bells are the joy of my life."
