Reader recommendation: Texas Got It Right!

Monitor readers share their favorite book picks.

By Karen Wade, Garland, Tex. / April 26, 2013


Texas Got It Right! by Sam Wyly and Andrew Wyly is an insightful, humorous look at Texas history, policies, and economic successes. Colorful maps, diagrams, and photos detail short stories about influential Texans who have been important to the state and to our country. Detailed graphics illustrate the growth and prosperity of Texas. I enjoyed this fun, interesting look at the Lone Star State.
