Description
New York: Hastings House, 1940. First Edition. 718pp. Octavo [21 cm] Light blue cloth with the titles stamped in blue on the front board and backstrip. Very good. Gentle rubbing and fading to extremities of boards. Name in ink on the verso of the front free endsheet. Lacks the dust jacket. Sponsored by the Texas State Highway Commission. Illustrated throughout with black & white photographs and maps. Historical pictorial map endsheets and pastedowns. "The historical incidents so dear to Texans, along with anecdotes of the frontier and tales of celebrated personages, are larded throughout the book, giving it a fine flavor of authenticity. The oil, the beef herds, the dairy industry, the truck farming, the skyscrapers, the cotton, the sharecroppers, the sports, the shipping and the people themselves." - New York Herald. Dykes 331. Herd 54. Powell 1487. Scharf/Schoyer 581. Six Guns 46.
