BOOK SIGNING

Saturday, November 15th, 2014, 2:00-4:00 p.m.

Galveston Bookshop will host a book signing with photographer Ralph Yznaga and his new book Living Witness: Historic Trees of Texas.

A beautiful tribute to the natural heritage of the Lone Star State, photographer Ralph Yznaga celebrates the strong connections between Texans and their trees. Inspired by the old Texas Forest Service book, Famous Trees of Texas, Yznaga has captured the continuing attachment we have to these magnificent reminders of our culture and history. Stunning images, stories, a detailed map, and driving directions to thirty-seven famous (and infamous) trees help us appreciate the enduring association between Texas history and its monumental trees.

Ralph Yznaga is an advertising and public relations professional in Austin, where he has created marketing campaigns for Zales, Marshalls, Hallmark, Lennox, AT&T, World Market, Southwest Airlines, United States Olympic Committee, and others.
