Fort Davis is pretty too.
So was your dad around the east Texas area in 1937?
On the cookbooks, I have over 1400 regular cookbooks and nearly 700 booklets. On all manner of cooking and some I won't touch due to their age.
About 1/3 are regional cookbooks.

My Dad and Mom moved over to east Texas in 1931. Lived in big tent for a while, till they were able to build an inexpensive house.
I have no DT cookbooks, for obvious reasons, but have 7500 in my virtual library, 764 of which are 25 pages or less. I've used quite a number of them to come up with interesting new (for me) meals. If I had my druthers, I'd never eat the same food twice. But since I only cook the special meals, and my wife cooks the rest, can't get her to agree.
