Texas Star

Everything's bigger in Texas. From deserts and pine forests to Gulf Coast beaches and canyons, the Lone Star State is as varied as it is vast, and its pull comes from a bold, confident spirit. Casey Gerald guides readers through Austin's music scene, Houston's Space Center, Marfa's minimalist art, Dallas's museums, San Antonio's River Walk and the Fort Worth Stockyards, celebrating a culture shaped by Mexican heritage, Southern tradition, Western mythology and a fiercely independent streak.
