Being Texan: Essays, Recipes, and Advice for the Lone Star Way of Life
The editors of Texas Monthly explore what it means to be a Texan in this anthology packed with essays, reportage, recipes, and recommendations from their renowned list of contributors. Big hats, big trucks, big oil fortunes—Texas clichés all. And while those elements do flourish throughout Texas, they alone hardly define the place. The Lone Star State is and has always been a great melting pot, home to sprawling cities, trailblazing innovators, and treasured traditions from all over, many of which become ingrained in popular culture and intertwined with the American ideal.
In this collection, the editors of Texas Monthly take stock of their multifaceted, larger-than-life state, including the people, customs, land, culture, and cuisine that have collided and comingled here. Featuring essays, reportage, recipes, and recommendations from the magazine’s legendary roster of contributors, and accompanied by original drawings, this fascinating exploration of Texan culture explores the landscapes that are home to more than 29 million people; the joys and idiosyncrasies of Texan life; underappreciated episodes of Texas history; and distinctive strains of Texan arts and culture.
Illuminating, surprising, and entertaining, this Texas anthology reveals the Lone Star State in all its beauty, vastness, and complexity.
What does it truly mean to be Texan in the modern age? Deep-Dive Journalism: Go beyond the clichés with insightful essays and reportage from the magazine’s legendary contributors. Hidden Texas History: Uncover underappreciated episodes and trailblazing innovators who shaped the Lone Star State. Authentic Texan Recipes: From classic traditions to modern culinary creations, discover the authentic tastes of Texas cuisine. A Rich Cultural Mosaic: Explore the unique arts, customs, and idiosyncrasies of modern Texas life, accompanied by original drawings.
