Being Texan: A Texas Monthly Special

"Texas Monthly" writers explore people and places at the intersections of identity, history, progress, and change. Stories include the ghost town of Terlingua, the last surviving ninepin bowling alleys, a ranching industry under threat, the unexpected discovery of a rare type of coyote, a woman who overturned state braiding laws, and a mild-mannered librarian who fought to save the Big Thicket.
