I read this book where the author travels to and writes extensively about Loving County (among other places). It was pretty interesting. He does make it sound like a lot of the people who live there are related one way or another and that there is a lot of familial infighting that has gone on for quite some time.

No, I don't know how to form a union. Especially in another country. And stop sending me private messages about it, that's really weird.

But you know who's a real hero? Bill Browder.

I don't know enough about unions to make any type of meaningful or positive contribution to this conversation. But I thought I might share a new novel that I suspect fans of restaurant unions would appreciate. Texas author from Dallas.

The big name in Edward III is W. Mark Ormrod, and he is fantastic. The only thing we disagree on is this issue with the clergy, and the ensuing mess it makes. So I highly recommend his newest publication, Edward III.

If you are interested in Patronage, James Bothwell's Edward III and the English Peerage is fascinating, and really well-documented.

Scott Waugh has a really great book on what was going on generally during his reign called England in the Reign of Edward III
that is a good foundational book, while Before the Black Death starts to get into some of the more interesting debates about the state of England prior to the Black Death.

If you are at all interested in the legal side, Robert Palmer's English Law in the Age of the Black Death is a meticulously researched examination of the transformation of Edward III's legal and domestic policies in the wake of the Black Death. A fairly controversial book, but again, the documentation is incredibly solid.

Truth. Recommended reading to anyone here interested in this bit of history: https://www.amazon.com/Injustice-Never-Leaves-You-Anti-Mexican/dp/0674976436

Funny. My reading of The Evolution of a State Recollections of Old Texas Days which is a firsthand recollection of early Texas life saw the Mormons as a pro separatist vote in Texas.

It said they had no strong feelings toward the Confederacy's cause, but that they wanted it to succeed so that there was precedent for an independence movement that might allow them their own territory out west. They also apparently voted 'Yes' to Texas secession then moved west soon after the vote. (The author says he voted 'No' and similarly migrated West.)

Laws aren't the only way to address something. This is primarily a cultural issue. The easiest way to shape the culture is through laws (see this book) but there may well be other ways.

Anyway, if the point of laws is to save lives, then laws on this issue would be much more relevant than laws on immigration or zoning or bathrooms.

He has a pretty impressive resume as well as a book out (about the Texas Railroad Commission), so I suppose it wouldn't be too hard to figure out what he would do as a commissioner.

That iconic Ranger was Joaquin Jackson.

For any Texan half way interested in history or law enforcement, his autobiography is well worth reading. He was on many big cases, a good example of which is his epic account of the Rio Grande shooting of the river rafters, as the media reported here.

A friend of mine owns this wonderful book. It has pics and descriptions of all 254 county courthouses!

I am pretty sure the person that actually invented it should get the credit. I have had an eco blue in my house for several years. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B003MZDHJ6/ref=cm_cr_arp_mb_bdcrb_top?ie=UTF8

I have seen very large dehumidifiers with filtration systems on them before. And that is all this is. He did not invent anything.

Well then you are doing so for no other reason than empty pride

You're dreaming if you think the wealthy aren't the ones that get anybody elected. But thanks for observing reddiquette by downvoting my comment because you didn't like it.

Here's something lighter than a heavy novel.
