Excerpt from The Book of Texas
From Texarkana in the northeastern corner to El Paso in the western it is farther than from New York to Chicago. The distance from Brownsville in the southern corner to Texline in the northwestern exceeds that from Tampa to Washington. Take a map of the United States and with a pair of compasses stretched from Texarkana to El Paso draw a circle' with Texarkana as a centre; perhaps you will be astonished to see the circle cut across Lake Michigan Use the distance from Brownsville to Texline as a radius and El Paso as a centre, and the circle runs far out into the Pacific Ocean. Made into a square, Texas would have sides a little over five hundred miles in length. Texas is not as long as, but is much broader than, California, her nearest competitor in area among the states. She exceeds California in size by more than square miles.
