Treasures of Texas: National Historic Landmarks of the Lone Star State

The subject matter of National Historic Landmarks is one that will entice readers as this goes beyond a narrative non-fiction in-depth view of each site. This book gives an overview of each site, enough to give people the 20,000-foot view that will bring them to the site for a more in-depth look and exploration. Being able to see present-day and historic photos of the site and its history, along with directions and visitor information, will give them the ability to find and explore on a basic level before deciding where to explore next. As a local historian, an avid explorer of such sites, and having worked on the public sides of historic sites for several years, I have a unique ability to boil down the history of a place to make it readable, accessible, and understandable with it leading the reader to want to visit and explore more. Bringing this subject matter to the reader must make it more than a brochure but less than an in-depth look site by site. Through my years in the museum field, I have been doing just that kind of work through marketing and exhibits.
