Being Texan: Essays, Recipes, and Advice for the Lone Star Way of Life

$ 30.00

A modern portrait of the Lone Star State.

In this vibrant anthology, the editors of Texas Monthly go beyond the clichés to explore what it truly means to be Texan today. Through essays, reportage, recipes, and recommendations from the magazine’s legendary contributors, the book captures the people, landscapes, history, and culture that define Texas in all its complexity.

Blending sharp journalism with original illustrations, this collection celebrates the state’s rich traditions, unexpected stories, and evolving identity—from underappreciated moments in Texas history to the distinctive flavors and creative spirit that shape modern Texan life. Illuminating, entertaining, and deeply insightful, it reveals Texas as far more than a stereotype—it’s a living, ever-changing cultural mosaic.
