This is the book Texas bikers have been waiting for. There's plenty about what to see and do along the way, but the focus is on the rides: Where to go, what signs to look for, how far the next turnoff is, when to be especially alert for what's around a sharp bend, when you can expect to relax a bit and just cruise. These 25 great rides have been scouted by Dorothy Waldman, who became a Biker Babe in her fifties when she finally mustered the courage to get on a motorcycle. She quickly discovered the thrills of riding the back roads of the Lone Star state, from the North Texas woodlands and lakes bliss on a bike to the pastoral Gulf Coast to the tricky ride in Big Bend country along the Rio Grande The most desolate, the most adventurous, and the most memorable sixty-seven miles of pure riding ecstasy or pure terror, ? a ride to be attempted, she warns, only after you?ve fully mastered your bike. Such pithy appraisals pepper the directions and route descriptions in The Biker's Guide to Texas. All rides are carefully mapped. They come with hints on what to see, where to eat and where to stay.

Texas is big and amazingly diverse. It has more than 3 million acres of inland lakes and rivers, 600 miles of oceanfront, and countless bayous and swamps in the eastern part of the state. More than 20 million acres of Texas are covered with trees. And, most important to motorcyclists, it has almost 100 mountains that exceed 5,000 feet in elevation -- with eight exceeding 8,000 feet -- each conveniently adorned with smooth roads that are waiting for adventurous riders. From ocean-side lobster shacks with the best chowder outside of New England to lush forest highways that wind through bursting riverbeds in the shadows of snow-capped mountain peaks, a great riding day is guaranteed. Davis has laid out a choice sampling of the best roads to ride, the best restaurants along the way, and the best times to see (or avoid) the hot tourist spots. And, with this new, updated second edition, he has expanded his coverage to include excursions into Northern Mexico to experience the incredible Copper Canyon, the awesome Sierra Madre Mountains, and a very special culture.

Nearly twenty years after they happened, the ATF and FBI assaults on the Branch Davidian residence near Waco, Texas remain the most deadly law enforcement action on American soil. The raid by Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms agents on February 28, 1993, which resulted in the deaths of four ATF agents and six Branch Davidians, precipitated a 51-day siege conducted by the FBI. The FBI tank and gas assault on the residence at Mount Carmel Center on April 19 culminated in a fire that killed 53 adults and 23 children, with only nine survivors. In A Journey to Waco, survivor Clive Doyle not only takes readers inside the tragic fire and its aftermath, but he also tells the larger story of how and why he joined the Branch Davidians, how the Branch Davidian community developed, and the status of survivors. While the media and official reports painted one picture of the Branch Davidians and the two assaults, A Journey to Waco shares a much more personal account of the ATF raid, the siege, and the final assault that details events unreported by the media. A Journey to Waco presents what the Branch Davidians believed and introduces readers to the community's members, including David Koresh. A Journey to Waco is a personal account of one man's journey with the Branch Davidians, through the tragic fire, and beyond.
