{"product_id":"9781681790114","title":"The Unauthorized History of Dallas: The Scenic Route Through 150 Years in \"Big D\"","description":"When Dallas turned 150 years old in 1991, Rose-Mary Rumbley celebrated the occasion by writing The Unauthorized History of Dallas-a history that takes the scenic route. \u003cp\u003eRose-Mary, whose German immigrant forbears began arriving in Dallas after the Civil War, accumulates histo­ry almost by osmosis. And she finds humor in ever snaggle-toothed story. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHer peephole history includes a collection of stories accumulated by her family, many originally published in the Oak Cliff Tribune. Rose-Mary explores everything in Dallas from South Fork and that \"awful\" Texas accent, to a two-bit Santa, and Dallas personalities are dis­cussed, including Robert L. Thornton, Doak Walker, Rufus C. Burleson, and even Bonnie and Clyde. There is also coverage of businesses-the department store bunch, Pegasus and Mobil Oil, Texas Instruments, LN, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wild Horse Media Group LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49789412770032,"sku":"9781681790114","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781681790114","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
