Dallas Got It Right

The Wyly family has just released a very clever and enjoyable book Dallas Got It Right! What makes this so fascinating is the inclusion of places throughout North Texas, in Louisiana where the family originally resided, and even as far as the Rocky Mountains that contribute to the vibrant, energetic city.

The bright, colorful photos add a special charge of energy to the project. The story line tells of the family’s unique connections with Dallas and Texas. Untold aspects such as logging are featured.

The book stresses the importance of Post-War Growth that set Dallas on such a smashing success from the 1950s up to the present. It quickly examines such aspects as energy, agriculture, technology, entrepreneurship, sports and banking while looking a retail, fast food, and housing. Of course, banking and the military are an exceptional part of Dallas.

A special section is devoted to Religious Freedom, as characterized in the numerous beliefs found within the region.

The book is an OnFire Book published in cooperation with Clovercroft Publishing. It makes a delightful gift for newcomers to the area and for memories of those whose lives have been spent in Dallas.
