Describes the development of the Texas Rangers, from their beginnings in the early 1820s as an irregular force designed to combat raids on settlers in Mexican-governed Texas. They have since dealt with rustlers, bootleggers and bandits, developing into a professional law enforcement organization.
The Texas Ranger is one of the most cherished symbols of the Lone Star State. While the Alamo is the undisputed symbol of Texas, the Ranger stands as an enduring symbol of the people of Texas. The Rangers were first formed to protect their neighbours from Indian attack, later they fought and died in a war for freedom, and staved off foreign invasion. Some Rangers died with glory at the Battle of the Alamo (1836), while many more were wounded, or died, in anonymity at dozens of obscure places. This volume by Dr Stephen L Hardin charts the history of this remarkable force from the 1820s through to the present day.
