Great Book,

This review is from: Crazy Water: The Story of Mineral Wells and Other Texas Health Resorts (Chisholm Trail Series) (Paperback)
I was looking for a history of the Baker Hotel in Mineral Wells, but this book has that and SO much more. It is well written, the author certainly knows his subject. The book kept me rapt from the first page to the last. I finished it in a night, and am now going back and re-reading the parts that interested me the most. This author has a good style, easy to read.
