PROLIFICALLY ILLUSTRATED in full color photography (many full page) with accompanying descriptive captions. "In 1982, in an airplane flying toward San Diego, California, Michael Grant, born and raised in Abilene, Texas, felt for the first time that he was going home-home to San Diego. Alarmed at the prospect of becoming an ex-Texan, he began to compile a picture book of Texas in his mind. Problem was, his book started in the year of his birth, 1947, and ended in 1972, when he left Texas. 'Deep in the Heart of Texas' chronicles Grant's jouney to find the Texas he left behind and the Texas that left him as well. He found a Texas that "has changed a lot, but is a long way yet from sticking all four feet in the air.People never made Texas. Texas has always made the people." Grant's enjoyable, earthy prose is enhanced by Willard and Kathy Clay's stunning full-color photographs that capture the beauty, the majesty, and the heart of Texas." 192 pages. *NOTE: Due to XL size and weight of the book significant additional shipping cost will be required for expedited and out-of-U.S. shipment.

Cloth. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. First Edition. FIRST EDITION. "Is Texas still there? Or has it become just another exit off the interstate to Anywhere, U.S.A.? Finding the answers to these questions is the task Michael Grant set for himself in writing the essays that fill 'Deep in the Heart of Texas.' Asterisk Texans-those who've chosen to live outside Texas-become fearful that one day there will be nothing Texan left to cling to. But Grant hoped that "there must be deeper veins, beyond the rest of the scouring winds of change, in which the blood of Texas and Texans still runs." His absence from Texas since 1972 provided him with the objectivity to go back for a realistic look. And that he did-he looked at the land, which never changes, and the weather, which always does. He looked at the roads-the best use of which is to view bluebonnets on a spring day-and at the history, which is "more a novel than a matter of record." He looked at Texans, Texas towns, oil, and moving back. "I wanted to find a heart, still there deep in Texas, but I didn't consider that a bias. I simply wanted to believe, and Texans have always considered that as good a place as any to start." Grant's entertaining and folksy prose is complemented by Willard and Kathy Clay's breathtaking photography. One hundred-and-forty full-color photographs capture Texas, past and present-county courthouses, thunderclouds, wide-open skies, roadside markers, and wildflowers." 192 pages. Sans rips/tears, stains, discoloration, markings and other prominent flaws. A NEAR FINE, COLLECTOR-WORTHY COPY of a stunning, remarkable book! LBCMA5. Clay, Kathy (illustrator).…
