Review
“Thus the book illuminates the history of business and urban development in twentieth century Houston and central Texas as much as it does the lives of Herman and George Brown. In the end, this volume on the Browns is a balanced case study of the relationship of business, economic power, and urban development in twentieth-century America.”--Bruce E. Seely, Journal of American History (Bruce E. Seely, Journal of American History)
