[Native Texan]

[Quickstand]

Blood Meridian andThe border trilogy, Cormac Mcarthy.

Empire of the summer moon mentioned above. A MUST READ for any Texan.

"The wrath of God lies sleeping. It was hid a million years before men were and only men have power to wake it. Hell ain't half full." (Blood Meridian, 1985)

Wow, I haven't thought about the Blood Meridian in years! One of my all time favorite quotes is from that book. "War? Why ask man what man thinks of war. One might as well ask what man thinks of stone. War always was. Before man was, war was waiting for him. The ultimate game awaiting the ultimate practitioner. Thus sayeth the Judge."

Killing Reagan.

Just finished a book called Left of Bang. It's a book about the marines combat hunter program. Really good book about situational awareness and not becoming a victim.

My 9 Years With The Indians - fascinating book and all true - also happened in Junction/Central Texas area so it is all areas you will recognize - very cool read for those into history

The other favorite would be the Lewis and Clark expedition - unbelievable what these men did -

I need to delete the amazon app ASAP after reading this thread...

[DosToros]

We need to start a list of the "Essential TBH Library" or something similar. It would be the TBH staples that get mentioned in every book thread. Like:
The Bible
Empire of the Summer Moon
Lone Survivor
Lonesome Dove
Everything Louis L'amour
Game of Thrones
Frackers
The Big Rich

That's just off the top of my head what am I missing that qualifies? I know there are a bunch more.

If you like non-fiction that relates to the outdoors, check out The Tracker. Its a story about Tom Brown. He has several books relating to tracking and such and are really interesting reads. Was trained by an old indian man in tracking and his stories are quite good.
