Riassunto

Howdy! As you’re heading down the lonesome trail, there’s no better pardner than Uncle John’s Bathroom Reader Plunges into Texas. Since 1987, the Bathroom Readers’ Institute has led the movement to stand up for those who sit down and read in the bathroom (and everywhere else for that matter). With more than 11 million books in print, the Uncle John’s Bathroom Reader series is the longest-running, most popular series of its kind in the world.
Where else could you learn about roadkill cuisine, the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders, and, lest we forget, the Alamo? This book is packed with trivia and tidbits that are easier to digest than armadillo chili. So gather ’round, folks, and read all about...
* The true stories behind Black Gold and Texas tea (oil, that is)
* Tuneful Texans: Willie, Waylon, and Janis
* The Marfa Lights, “the Houston Bride,” and other Texas mysteries
* France’s debt of honor to one Texas vintner
* Rodeo Texas style: ropin’, ridin’, and wrasslin’
* And much more!
