Overview

Texas is more than a state; it is a mythos. It is a land defined by its sheer scale, its violent struggle for independence, and a rugged individualism that borders on the spiritual. From the piney woods of the East to the desolate high deserts of the West, the landscape of Texas has soaked up the blood of revolutionaries, Comanches, Texas Rangers, outlaws, and oil barons. It is a place of boom and bust, of immense wealth and desperate poverty, of high honour and cold-blooded murder. In The Lone Star's Lament: A Haunted Journey Through Texas, we traverse this vast territory to uncover the stories that the history books whisper but rarely shout. We will walk the halls of hotels where Teddy Roosevelt recruited his Rough Riders, stand on the bridges where lynch mobs enacted brutal justice, and stare into the unexplained lights that have danced over Marfa for centuries.
