From the Back Cover

Tired of the same old tourist traps? Whether you’re a visitor or a local looking for something different, let Texas Off the Beaten Path show you the Lone Star State you never knew existed. Cowboy up at Texas Ranch Life, where you can round up cattle. Explore the sand dunes at the 4,000-acre Monahans Sandhills State Park. Participate in the Rattlesnake Roundup in Sweetwater, an annual event that includes snake-handling demonstrations and a rattlesnake-eating contest. So if you’ve “been there, done that” one too many times, get off the main road and venture Off the Beaten Path.
