Lake LBJ and the Re-Birth of Kingsland tells the story of a dying town and a rising political star. The former frontier outpost turned railroad resort had almost faded away when Lyndon Johnson entered the political arena. His amazing rise affected Kingsland in many ways even before he bought a lakefront ranch there in 1961, but when he became president in 1963, Kingsland became "the boomingest town in the Lone Star State." This book, from interviews with old-timers and newspaper accounts from those exciting years, tells part of the story of "Lyndon's Lake" and the small town of Kingsland.
