‘The Fifty-Year Texas Road Trip’

By Randy Mallory

In 1972, Mallory got a job as a field editor for Texas Co-Op Power magazine, going around Texas writing articles, photographing things of interest to Texans. He later photographed for other Texas publications and the Texas Historical Commission. This book captures the Texas scene and his career as a photographer of Texas in 228 color and six black and white photographs. It puts a six-decade career as a travel writer into a single colorful volume. A visual delight that captures the Texas spirit.
