It has been said that every Texan has two hometowns: his own and San Antonio. Its charm, colorful surroundings, and diverse cultures combine to make the Alamo City one of the most interesting places in Texas and the nation. Few writers have captured the essence of that vibrant city as does Mark Louis Rybczyk in this collection of stories, history, and fascinating facts.
Mark examines some of San Antonios legends and ghost stories, takes a nostalgic look at landmarks that have disappeared, introduces some of the citys characters and unusual features, debunks a few local myths, and corrects some misconceptions. This is a unique book about a special city. If youve never been to San Antonio, this book will make you want to go; if youve been to the city many times, this book will make you want to go back again.
