Praise for this new edition:
“What a novel and productive idea to reprint the 1936 Texas Almanac. It’s an invaluable source of hard-to-get historical facts and statistics, fascinating odds and ends, and a delightful reminiscence.”
Darwin Payne, author of many books on Texas, including Big D: Triumphs and Troubles
“For nearly 150 years, the Texas Almanac has provided a detailed portrait of the state—its geography, population, industry, and commerce. But the 1936 Almanac was special, the largest to that date, celebrating the state’s 100th year of independence. ˿Ƶ’s William P. Clements Center for Southwest Studies has rendered a great service to all students of Texas history—both professional and amateur—by republishing this valuable and rare work.”
