So begins this delightful book that will tickle your funny bone and remind you of all the wonderful things about Texas you love. Whether you just got here for the first time or are coming home to stay, you will enjoy this fascinating collection of information that includes rodeo, Texas talk, music, travel, shopping, sports, pickup trucks, entertaining history, and delicious recipes.

Born Again Texan is a must read for every native Texan, every returning Texan, and every wanna-be Texan.

5.0 out of 5 stars Born Again Texan!, March 28, 2000
By A Customer
Born Again Texan! is chili for the Texas soul. It makes you laugh, it makes you cry, and it rejuvinates the spirit. If you are a Texan, it makes you realize why you smile when someone asks, "Where are you from?"

Informative in a humorous, short chapter format, Born Again Texan is a guideline for anyone interested in the Texas mystique. The chapter on the uniqueness of Texas "talk" is a hoot. But be ready with the hanky when you read the acts of kindness stories.

Weather, critters, vehicles, and rodeo... Cowboys, sports, music, and places to go -- Laugh and learn, Born Again Texan! is a great read.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Wild Romp Through the Lone Star State, April 2, 2000
By A Customer
Born Again Texan is a funny, authentic and heartwarming book - even if you're not a Texan or planning a trip to the Lone Star State. Author Robin Cole has a great eye for the details that make her home state a cradle for characters. Although she was a refugee for 30 years, her experiences elsewhere give her a clearer view of what is unique, charming and downright wacky about Texas. It's a must read for anyone who has even spoken the word Texas!

And if you're planning a trip there, her advice on speaking Texanese, weather, and down-home etiquette are essential. You'll also find great information on the major cities and towns, as well Texas cultural events - from music to rodeos.
