About the author

Chuck Parsons loves the Old West in general and Texas history in particular. His main focus of writing and research deals with the outlaws and the lawmen of Texas, especially the Texas Rangers. This has been his first love since sometime in the Junior High School years, in the 1950s. Although Chuck appreciates good novels, such as those written by Elmer Kelton, he concentrates on researching and writing the facts of the Old West.
