Fort Worth is �the City of Cowboys and Culture��and where the West begins. Its citizens highlight the Texas can-do spirit and the determination and compassion to make a difference; to be legendary. When Buckley (B.B.) Paddock persuaded the railroad to lay track west of Dallas; a city was born and so was opportunity. Cowboys like T.J. Ryon rode into town with their cattle. J. Frank Norris preached against the vices in Hell�s Half Acre while Jennie Schueber tried to rally support for a free library. Feisty entrepreneurs like Ninnie Baird and John B. Laneri baked bread and sold pasta noodles. �Cowtown� also boasts such notables as Edna Gladney; who helped countless orphans find a home; the Clark brothers; who brought Texas Christian University home; and Claude R. Platte; who bravely served as a Tuskegee airman. These fine folks are just a sampling of Fort Worth�s fascinating�and sometimes infamous�characters.

The first part covers the basics of equipment; and photography. Much of it was review for me; but since Im not a professional photographer; its good to have a refresher. The second part of the book gives good tips for taking pictures while traveling. Id say this is directed to photographers who are traveling; rather than travelers who are taking pictures; but it still has a lot of useful information.
