Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Whether, like Gene Roddenberry's fictional characters in Star Trek, they went boldly where no man had gone before, or like Sandra Day O'Connor, they smashed the glass ceiling and advanced the rights of women, these fifteen Texans accomplished what few ever have. They obtained power and fame, and changed America and the world. They say everything's bigger in Texas. These larger-than-life people seem to prove the point. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in Texas or American culture.
