Book Reviews of Texas Hill Country
Book Review: A BIG book with little to offer
Summary: 2 Stars
I purchased this rather expensive "coffee table" book with the hope of receiving an idealized photo-documentary of the Hill Country (at least, more than what I already know). I got a big book with lots of mundane landscape scenes - many shrouded in fog and cloud cover. Sort of like battlefield pictures long after a war ended.
The narrative was short and basically a flashback of the writer's utopic vision of the Hill Country set against the current status quo. Not the kind of story that inspires you to rush to Central Texas and explore.
