Series Review: Spotlight on Texas"With concise and accurate information, these books are good for beginning Texana researchers...Large historical and modern photos, illustrations, and maps, most in full color, appear on every page. Captions are detailed and include additional tidbits. Attractive and useful for Texas libraries."
