Texas is not just a state. It’s a performance. It’s a myth dressed in boots, dripping in barbecue sauce, swaggering through hurricanes, and bragging about high school football as if the future of civilization depended on it.
In Texas Forever, For Better or Worse, Jordan Blake Carter delivers a witty, unsanitized tour of the Lone Star State’s past and present: the legends, the contradictions, and the absurdities that make Texas impossible to ignore. From the Alamo’s selective memory to Spindletop gushers, from Lyndon Johnson’s power plays to Ann Richards’ one-liners, from barbecue rituals to megachurch theatrics, this book roasts Texas with humor and affection.
Along the way, you’ll meet cowboys who were really just underpaid laborers, oil barons who turned greed into theater, politicians who made bluster an art form, and towns that insist they invented something important (and might actually be right). You’ll wade through floods, dodge tornadoes, sit through rodeos, and find out why Texas culture is equal parts absurdity and pride.
Whether you’re a proud Texan, a curious outsider, or someone who just wants a laugh with their history, this book will remind you of one undeniable truth: Texas may be ridiculous, but it is never boring.
