Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This Texas Traditions Series reprint takes us back to the Lone Star State during the Cold War at the beginning of the 1960s.

Back in Dallas, idealistic attorney Ben Carpenter moves to thwart the Guthrie/Morris takeover.

Shrake is a first-rate stylist who knows how the upper half lives.…
