Summary: Must-have guide to Texas trails
Comment: Hiking Texas is *the* guide to Texas backpacking and hiking trails, bar none. The guide is short on pictures (get Parent's Official Guide to Texas State Parks for a more photo-rich book), but long on the history, character, geology and wildlife of some of Texas' best-loved trails, as well as some of its lesser-known ones.
Parent is a accomplished writer, conservationist, hiker and photographer, and he brings all talents to bear on his works. If you want to get the most from your Texas hikes, this is the book that should be in your pack!

Summary: Parent's 'Texas' is bigger than life!
Comment: An impressive pictorial tome--for sure. "Texas" by Laurence Parent is an impressive pictograph of the Lone Star State. Parent is an acclaimed and accomplished photographer whose lenses have found some rather enchanting shots. With an impressive--and dramatic--essay by Elmer Kelton, the book is more than just "coffee table" subject matter. This volume shows National Geographic and Architectural Digest quality reproduction of its photos. A real treat. Thematically, however, Parent doesn't seem to have a real pattern for his photos, rather they appear as they strike his fancy. But no matter. Each picture is worth far more than a thousand words!

Summary: Texas Places of the Heart
Comment: This book is a visual stunner, published by a graphics company that took pains to get the colors right. Whether he's pointing his lens at wildlife or city life, buildings or byways, Parent turns an artists eye on the places in Texans' hearts.
