"Since 1940, Texas has flip-flopped its population from country to city. We're now eighty-two percent urban. Many of these essays touch therefore upon a vanishing Texas. There is also in this book an evaluation of what our mythology tells us about our past and what our actual experience tells us. I'm interested in the gap between mythology and experience. It's where I live, in Irony Gap."--Don Graham
