This 119-page hardcover chronicles the history of Odessa, Texas. Written by West Texas historian Glenn Justice, the book begins with a look at the ancient sea that once covered the Permian Basin. It moves on to deal with the great Permian Basin oil field and the growth of the oil patch city of Odessa that sprang from a ranch community born with the coming of the railroad in the 1880’s. The book contains over 100 rare historical photographs and an index.
