Description

Dallas, that city on 'the meridian where the tree line ends, has found its advocate. In these fourteen stories, Marshall Terry shows us the myth of the great golden city rising from the endless flat land, and the reality of its prairie suburbs where lives and lawns resist pruning, people from outlying Baptist communities confront the all-powerful Power and Light, and good old boys buy in, buy out, and kick the big one. Nobody seems to be in charge, and everybody needs to know a little water and oil geology to survive. With good manners, good taste, and Southwestern grace, Terry introduces us to Big D, bringing locale and reader together with a firm Texas handshake.---Shelby Hearon
