With greatly varying weather, inhospitable flora and fauna, and a hardscrabble citizenry that has learned to endure and thrive, Texas is the romantic stuff of legends. The romance -- and the belief that this land will produce abundantly for whoever has the gumption to take it on -- is why people buy property here. In Finding, Buying, and Developing a Ranch in Texas, Jim Mullen outlines how to do exactly that, exposing the prospective ranch buyer to the basic principles of buying and developing rural land in this great state.
