Description:

Spring is nigh, the Texas wildflowers are ready to bloom, and the chicken-fried steaks are sizzling. Texas cuts a grand figure in legend, film, history, and across the map of the United States. The second-largest state in area and population, with miles of gulf shoreline, acres of interior, and gallons of attitude, Texas offers the variety tourists crave, and the space in which to enjoy it. Judy Moore's Texas Guide presents dude ranches, sacred Native American scapes, and the U.S.'s second largest canyon--still home to buffalo. She writes of rivers for kayaking and fishing, wetlands for bird watching, and saloons where Bonnie and Clyde drank. There's the music scene in Austin, archaeology in Lubbock, and dune-filled beaches on South Padre Island. She describes the options (desert, mountain, coast, and city), explains the subtleties of barbecue, details hundreds of places to stay and to eat, and makes Texas accessible.
