description: "Tex Rex" is a highly original novel, crowded with larger-than-life characters, whose antics carry them beyond the borders of Texas into a world of higher education, philanthropy, and even that of Osama bin Laden. The author puts his distinctive brand on the positive and negative aspects of the still living myths that animate our ideas about the West and the American West's quest for freedom, land, and gold, and of Texas and Dallas. It is a story about a man who believes he is the king of Texas, his daughter, and the provost of a small college.
