The chief executives of Texas

by Hendrickson, Kenneth E

"Texas govenors have often been portrayed as larger-than-life heroes, but most were not. In this thorough and colorful study of the leaders of the Lone Star State, Kenneth E Henderickson Jr., holds up a Texas sized magnifying glass to take a candid look at the lives and accomplishments of the now deceased forty two men and one woman who held the office of governor, or president of the Republic."
