Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. From the first 17th- century Spanish missions to Johnson Space Center's mission control, no other state exemplifies the independent spirit of the frontier more than Texas. It's the largest state in the continental US, hosting 11 different distinct ecological regions, from desert valleys to wooded mountain slopes. Explore the brush country of the Rio Grande and step among the yucca and cacti of the south Texan desert. Walk through the dusty forts and settlements of the Big Bend and ride horseback through a ranch larger than all of Rhode Island. See the Lone Star State in this photographic tribute of everything from the High Plains to the Gulf Coast. The Alamo. Big Bend. Cadillac Ranch. Texas is full of places so unique, they've become part of American legend. Each corner of the state offers sights found nowhere else. In San Antonio, visitors can wander in the 17th-century missions, now in the midst of a cosmopolitan mecca. In Fort Worth, they can relive the days of the Wild West at the Stockyards National Historic District. And in Houston, they can stop at NASA's Mission Control and learn the latest details of space exploration. The nation's top photographers have combined their talents to create Texas. They offer glimpses of the state's tumultuous history, varied cultures and spectacular landscapes.
