Book excerpt: All over the world, The University of Texas at Austin is synonymous with academic excellence.

Texas College Guide: The University of Texas at Austin breaks down the knowledge barriers, giving students the information they need to start working in advance and lay the groundwork to make themselves stand out from the pack. This is not a book about tricks or back doors. It presents a detailed evaluation of the various majors available at UT and an assessment of how those majors play out after graduation. Additionally, the guide reviews admissions practices and statistics to give students a realistic appraisal of the processes in place at UT. Finally, Givens incorporates her personal twist on career opportunities and fields of study, as well as provides actual examples of successful UT applicants from previous years. There is no other book like this one on the market.

They believe her years in Texas, especially the Texas Panhandle, were significant for her subsequent development as a thoroughly modern American artist.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The South Texas Sand Sheet, also known as the Coastal Sand Plains and the Llano Meste o, is a vast region covering more than two million acres at the southern tip of the state, just north of the Lower Rio Grande Valley. The landscape's distinctive feature is the dunes created from sheets of sand blown inland from the shoreline of an ancient sea. Highly diverse native plant communities help make it one of the state's most cherished ecological regions as well as the premier hunting region in the world for northern bobwhites. The Sand Sheet is a constantly shifting semi-arid landscape, shaped by wind, ranching, energy production, and, increasingly, by growing urban populations surrounding the region. Organized with the nonbotanist or beginning-level botanist in mind, A Photographic Guide to the Vegetation of the South Texas Sand Sheet includes 200 of the most common grasses, flowering plants, vines, cacti, and woody plants of the South Texas Sand Sheet, 56 of which are species endemic to Texas and 15 of which can only be found in this region. Species are grouped by physical appearance, allowing budding naturalists, landowners, and students to find a specific plant without needing to first understand how families and species are grouped scientifically. Each plant entry includes a representative sampling of photos for that species, showing how it might look from a distance, up close, and at different stages of its life cycle. This handy snapshot of plant life in the South Texas Sand Sheet will enable anyone to easily identify Sand Sheet plants, learn more about their uses, and understand their value to the region.
