Description:
"The Men who Wear the Star" deals with the period between 1823, when the Texas Frontier Force was organized, to 1934, when Bonnie and Clyde were captured, which marked the end of the horse-mounted rangers. The book recounts the Rangers fights with Indians, their journey over the Rio Grande as part of Zachary Taylor's expeditionary force into Mexico, their participation in the Civil War, and their exploits after the Civil War was over.
Expand description
The story contains many memorable characters, like Major John Jones, who was probably one of the greatest of all Ranger commanders, and Sam Bass, one of the most dangerous outlaws of his time.
Following the Rangers from their inception up through the Depression, where they dealt mainly with gangsters, this book captures the feel of the old west with style and imagination.
