"Meticulously researched and engagingly written, Ken Roberts' The Cedar Choppers leads us on a fascinating journey to the heart of this legendary Texas subculture."-- Steven L. Davis, PEN USA-winning author and past president, Texas Institute of Letters "Meant first for general audiences but badly needed by scholars, the work brings a neglected group into the southwestern history canon . . . a readable, conversational narrative."--Southwestern Historical Quarterly "The best Texas book I've read of late was The Cedar Choppers: Life on the Edge of Nothing by Ken Roberts. It doubles as one of the most instructive books about Austin's history and culture."--Austin American Statesman Number Twenty-four: Sam Rayburn Series on Rural Life, sponsored by Texas A&M University-Commerce
