a true pioneer, opening doors for women, and for Republicans-a rare breed in Texas before she came along...This girl from Yoakum is truly a Texas legend,

As President of the United States, I was privileged to meet kings and queens, presidents and prime ministers, and even a few dictators and despots along the way. But I'm not sure any of them compared to Marjorie Arsht, a life force in Texas politics for as long as I can remember. Marjorie was a true pioneer, opening doors for women, and for Republicans-a rare breed in Texas before she came along. However, until I read All the Way From Yoakum even I did not fully understand what Marjorie was about. In this revealing, funny and poignant memoir, Marjorie shares all the joys and heartaches of her remarkable life, proving what Barbara and I already knew: This girl from Yoakum is truly a Texas legend. --George Herbert Walker Bush--George Herbert Walker Bush
