Description: This auction is for a pre-owned hardback book - illustrated - with dust jacket - former library book Ozona Countryby Allan R. BosworthHarper & Row, PublishersCopyright © 1964 by Allan R. BosworthFIRST EDITIONM-N238 pages Quote from inner flap of dust jacket:At the point where U.S. Highway 290 and Texas State Highway 163 inter- sect near the monument to David Crockett a sign reads: "OZONA - Big- gest Little Town in the World." Ozona, Texas, with a population of 3,361, is the only town in Crockett County, which is twice the size of Rhode Island. No railroad touches the county, but people get around, many of them in spanking new Cadillacs which they can well afford; and there is good evidence to prove that the women are the best dressed of any city in the United States - maybe Europe. Millionaires' Town, it is called - this astonishing community sprung up in cowboy and sheepherder country only two generations from the wild, rocky and thorny frontier. It's an Amer- ican phenomenon, at once special and typical, for it is fashioned of things that went into the making of a hundred less colorful communities in the southern and western reaches of the United States. ...
