The definitive book on Taxas interior design and architecture—from log cabins to urban lofts to sprawling Hill Country ranches—by the expert on Taxas style.

Library Journal

These two books provide a glimpse of the interiors and exteriors of homes in Texas and Napa Valley, CA, respectively. Beard, owner of True West, a purveyor of Western collectibles, visits homes throughout the state that exemplify the diversity of Texas style. Homes large and small are included, with older limestone ranch houses shown alongside contemporary, modern-style residences, some of which reflect a stereotypical Texas style-cowboy boots and longhorns above the mantle with a dash of Mexican or Indian decorative touches thrown in. The book concludes with a list of resources for viewing and acquiring Texas-style accoutrements. Masson (Santa Barbara Style) reviews the history of the Napa Valley, which as a wine-growing region dates back to the mid-19th century, and then takes the reader into the homes that reflect the building styles popular in the United States at the time of their construction-such as restored Victorians of the 1870s, 1910 craftsman homes, and contemporary, modern architecture. Both books include discussions of the inhabitants and how their lifestyles and decorating preferences are reflected in their homes but few practical tips on achieving a particular look. Lone Star Living is recommended for libraries whose patrons are interested in Western-style decorating and Napa Valley Style for those libraries where there is an interest in photographs of restored and contemporary interiors.
