David H. Falloure writes about history and Texas. He spent significant time as a columnist and contributor for regional media. He also penned articles in the Texas State Historical Association (TSHA) Handbook of Houston launched in March 2017. Counterclockwise is Falloure’s latest work—a suspense thriller set primarily in 1942 Houston, but his nonfiction work includes Brands in History, the hard copy book based on his long-running blog; Deep Water: The Story of Beaumont and its Port; The Houston Ship Channel: Open to the World; and Sheer Will: The Story of the Port of Houston and the Houston Ship Channel. Those are long titles but they are long stories, and good ones, too. If you’re the YouTube type, catch Falloure in the award-winning documentary, the Houston Ship Channel: Deep Water Centennial. Husband and father of three sons, Falloure makes his home in Texas. He is also an admiral in the Texas Navy—yes, there is a Texas Navy. It’s an organization dedicated to preserving state heritage and history.
