A quote from the review:
"One theme that permeates the entire book is the identification of Texas as a southern rather than a western state. From the earliest Anglo migrants of the Old South, who implanted an agricultural, slave-holding economy and held political control of the state, to the secession crisis and alignment with the Confederacy, Texas retained its strong southern roots. Its western past, Campbell asserts, was short-lived (1865-1885) and represented only a minority of Texans. By the close of the frontier (1890), Texas had more in common with southern cotton farmers than western ranchers and cattlemen."

Hahahaha... so somebody wrote a book, huh?
kidrock is right, you're one of those guys who's never wrong.
Find all the links and opinions out there in the wild west of the internet you want (especially on partisan hack websites that want to portray it a certain way), but Texas is a western state.
It's west of the Mississippi. Maybe you'll try to refute that.
