By Joe Patoski. Far West Texas is where the mountains are. Lots of mountains. Tall mountains. Rugged mountains. Ranges of faults, folds, intrusions, and extrusions that are rocky, rough, and formidable. These are the places of Texas dreams, where everything is larger, grander, and more mythic. The 8 counties that Texas's mountains sprawl across are bigger than entire states and some nations. Enjoy the view! Hard cover, 155 pages.
