From the first 17th- century Spanish missions to Johnson Space Center's mission control, no other state exemplifies the independent spirit of the frontier more than Texas. It's the largest state in the continental US, hosting 11 different distinct ecological regions, from desert valleys to wooded mountain slopes. Explore the brush country of the Rio Grande and step among the yucca and cacti of the south Texan desert. Walk through the dusty forts and settlements of the Big Bend and ride horseback through a ranch larger than all of Rhode Island. See the Lone Star State in this photographic tribute of everything from the High Plains to the Gulf Coast.
We recently purchased 2 of these Texas (America Series) hardcover books as gifts to give two different couples we visited in Europe to entice them to include our area in Texas on one a future trip. We had looked through several books in a local bookstore and came across this one in paperback there. There were others that could have made a good gift also, but this one was very appealing and was a few dollars less expensive than the other one we were deciding between. I used a quick search with the Amazon app on my phone and found the hardcopy available for just a little less than at the store, so we ordered two and took them with us. They were light enough to pack easily, and we were delighted with the books when looking through them again, and our European friends seemed very interested in them and at least one of the two couples is planning a trip to visit us and see some of Texas with us.
