Why is Frisco, Texas, the fastest growing town in America? Why is Dallas the fastest growing city in America? Why are the largest American and international companies moving headquarters to Texas? The answers are simple—Dallas Got It Right! This dynamic new book by Sam Wyly, co-authored by Laurie Matthews and Andrew Wyly, offers new insights into the many reasons Dallas feeds the world, out produces the Middle East in oil and gas, and serves as an epicenter for business management, technology and investment. Wyly’s “Dallas” goes north to Colorado Springs; east to Jackson, Mississippi; south to Aggie Land; and west to White Sands. Dallas Got It Right! is rich in history; entrepreneurial in spirit; expansive in technology; unbounded by city limits. Built on cotton, cows, oil, the military, computer technology, wholesaling and retail, Sam reminds readers that, “My Dallas feeds the world. My Dallas is the technology capital of the world. My Dallas is vital to America’s military muscle.” Dallas Got It Right! shows readers that Dallas goes beyond Elm Street and Main Street, made up of many neighborhoods and characters. It’s a good place to live and work.
