But we are in Texas and for every problem, there is a solution. First of all, it is absolutely necessary not to annoy Zearsdale, one of the wealthiest men in Houston. Unfortunately Mitch has had the bad idea to make a scene in Zearsdale's club. He will discover that Texans do have a curious and cruel way to take revenge.

A humorous book about Texan way of life. In POP. 1280's same inspiration.
