Texas: a land of sprawling diversity and unparalleled richness; a dazzling chapter in the history of our nation; a place like no other on Earth. Through the remarkable lives of four families, this epic saga spans four centuries and two continents and charts the dramatic formation of several great dynasties from the age of the conquistadors to the present day. A richly compelling novel of a proud people eager to meet the challenge of the land, Texas is James Michener's most magnificent achievement.

1. When a person is reading a book about Texas, they really need to consult with Texans on the pronunciation of Texas cities and names. Examples: Waxahachie (Walks-a-hachie - NOT Wax-a-hachie); Megargal (Ma-gargle, NOT Me-gar-gal); Miami (Ma-yam-a, NOT Miami like in Florida); 6666 Ranch near Guthrie, TX (4-6 Ranch - a reference to the poker hand by which the guy won the ranch, NOT sixty-six sixty-six). There were a lot more.... Anyway, -nuf said.
2. The reader's delivery seemed stiff - and no special voices for anyone, including women.
The book was great!
Texans should all listen to this
