The legacy of Burnet County rises from a solid prehistoric batholith of pink granite that built the state capitol, established an industry, and is still being quarried. The county is a focal point of Texas History, and its natural beauty and resources drew the attention of politicians on the path to power, including a U.S. President, whose influence built the dams that electrified rural Central Texas. As communities modernized, its citizens made history, including the first female mayor in the state, elected before women could even vote. Author Suzanne Freeman, whose own roots sink deep into the rocky soil of Burnet County, chronicles the remarkable people, both famous and forgotten, who shaped the heritage of the county and the Lone Star State.
