Texas by Rachel Barenblat is about the state of Texas. It tells about Texas's distinction of being the only state that has ever been independent and many other unique things about the state. This book is divided into clear sections with no overlap and is filled with practical information and trivia.

Texas by Rachel Barenblat is part of a collection of books about the states of the USA. This book is quite amazing in all of the information it covers. I would very strongly recommend this book to anyone who is not an expert on Texas.
