A sweeping, sumptuous story of love, greed, jealousy, and redemption that evokes the turmoil and drama rippling through the history of the Lone Star State. 1920s Houston is a city of cotton kings and newly rich oil barons. Kirby Augustus Allen, grandson of the Allen brothers who founded Houston as a real estate deal, is grooming his daughter Hetty to marry Lamar Rusk, scion of the Splendora oil fortune. Instead, at the No-Tsu-Oh Carnival of 1928, beautiful, rebellious Hetty encounters a mysterious man from Montana dressed in the gear of a wildcatter-an outsider named Garret MacBride. Hetty is torn between Lamar's lavish courtship and her instinctive connection to Garret. As Lamar's wife she would be guaranteed acceptance to the highest ranks of Houston society. Yet Garret, poor but powerfully ambitious, offers the adventure she craves. It's a Texas-sized rivalry that could shape the future of the state as rumors of a vast, untapped ocean of oil in East Texas spark a frenzy that can make fortunes-or shatter lives and dreams beyond repair. ""A compelling and evocative portrait of Houston in the 1920s. In turns thrilling, heartbreaking and uplifting, you will not want to put this book down until you've seen Hetty MacBride through all of her trials and triumphs."" -Rebecca Kanner, author of EstherBinding Type: Paperback

Needed a revised 2024 edition and this includes a statutory supplement. I’ve purchased other books from this company and they’ve all been exactly what I was looking for. Highly recommend!!

Don't Like the Typeface
Format: Paperback
I'm sure the information is fine but the typeface is annoying to me compared to the Michigan Legal Publishing reference books I usually buy. I won't make this mistake again.

Good Additional Book for Law Students
Format: Paperback
My husband needed this book as one of his required course books and he loved it. He said it explained everything so well and even provided step by step examples on how to construct an MPT task.
Taking the Bar Exam more than once is not worth it, spend the money it's well worth it and if you use this book you can increase your odds to score better on the writing portion of the Bar Exam.
