"This biography of Enid Justin will be a significant addition to the growing body of work about unique women in the history of Texas. Equally important is the exploration of the historic context of the 'cowboy culture' that allowed the Texas boot industry to become a significant factor in the economic development of the state." --Frances Vick, retired UNT Press Director, Texas Folklore Society Secretary/Editor
