Texas Monthly Presents: The Story
Texas Monthly has chronicled the state for more than fifty years, and nobody knows Texas—its characters and complexities—better than the magazine’s writers and editors. Texas Monthly Presents brings that journalism from the page to the screen, and the first season, titled The Story, transforms select stories into brand-new visual experiences, combining cinematic footage with writer interviews.

The Story: TAKING MATTERS INTO YOUR OWN HANDS
Texas Monthly Presents: The Story Episode 7 | 24m 36s | CC
It's an iconically Texan quality to be independent, self-sufficient, and do what needs doing. This episode explores three distinct Texans who have taken matters into their own hands — a hunter helping his fellow ranchers, an Egyptian-born pitmaster who journeyed to Texas to make his mark in barbecue, and a pair of brothers trying to accurately document the fallen of The Forgotten War.
