Eric R. Swanson

This great little primer on Texas should be in the library of every naturalist, teacher and decision maker in Texas. Geo-Texas brings together astronomy, geology, meteorology (the picture of the 1979 Wichita Falls Tornado is nightmare inducing), oceanography, and environmental studies in this delightful to read guide to Texas. Learn why the Blue topaz is the state gem, why Thrall is the unofficial site of the heaviest rainfall on record, where the most oil is produced, about the 12 most destructive hurricanes, where the three known meteorite craters are and so on.
