Musty old Zane Gray (first editions!) were about all that my desolate high school library had to offer. I consumed and internalized Gray - who seldom wrote about Texas - but Arizona and Mormon country were painted so vividly in mind's eye, I became homesick for lands I never knew. Then I read McMurtry. Lonesome Dove series. Oh! Texas! To this day I've barely passed through (a day in Austin, a night on a Greyhound bus). Must get to Texas Texas or bust!
Thank you for this tribute to Texas :)
