Central Texas is an area as diverse culturally as it is
geographically. Bordered by Hill Country in the west, green
farmland in the east and Waco and New Braunfels in the north and
south, this area has drawn settlers from around the globe for over
two centuries, leaving their mark and their stories along the way.
From a surprising story of nineteenth-century psych ops at Fort
Mason and what really happened to Bevo, the UT longhorn, in 1920 to
Mrs. Ross's Croghan Cobbler recipe and rumors of a Lone Star visit
by old Abe himself, historian Mike Cox regales readers with over
fifty stories about the fascinating people, history and places of
middle Texas.
