About this listen

Gone to Texas engagingly tells the story of the Lone Star State, from the arrival of humans in the Panhandle more than 10,000 years ago to the opening of the 21st Century. Focusing on the state's successive waves of immigrants, the audiobook offers an inclusive view of the vast array of Texans who, often in conflict with each other and always in a struggle with the land, created a history and an idea of Texas.

Any additional comments?

Ironically, rather like Texas, this book is very large and very dry!

The narration style doesn't really help, to be honest, as it is somewhat monotonous.

I try to see books through to the end but, being honest, I am struggling with this one. If I do and my views change then I will write an addendum review. However I am struggling at present and find myself continuously saying "Oh just hurry up and get to The Alamo!".

Get to The Alamo!
