     If you're a newcomer to TEXAS or have TEXAS in your future, you've got a lot to learn about your adopted state.
   F
irst of all, if you're an American and are neither Texan nor Southern, you're a YANKEE. Never mind if your home state wasn't even a state during the Civil War.
   Second, as a YANKEE, you don't know squat. Until you read this book.
   Sophia Dembling is that most heinous of YANKEES -- a New Yorker. But after more than two decades in TEXAS, she can clue you in to everything you need to know about your new home. Here you'll find answers to such questions as:

* Is there anything that isn't made in the shape of TEXAS?
* Is football out of control?
* Are Texans really as nice as they seem?
* How am I supposed to dress professionally when I turn into a sweaty mess 10 minutes after leaving the house ?
* What's the deal with the Alamo?

       Even if you've been in TEXAS for decades, The YANKEE CHICK'S SURVIVAL GUIDE To TEXAS from Republic of Texas Press will enhance your understanding and, just as important, let you know that you're not alone in sometimes wondering just what you've gotten yourself into.
    T
he YANKEE CHICK'S SURVIVAL GUIDE To TEXAS is required reading for all YaNKee chicks in TEXaS.
