Texas Rangers

Osprey Elite #36

by Stephen L. Hardin, Richard Hook (Illustrator)

19th century Rangers protected their neighbours from Indian attack, fought and died in a war for freedom, and staved off foreign invasion. Their later adversaries included hardened criminals such as John Wesley Hardin and Bonnie and Clyde. Today the Rangers are a modern organisation and represent the elite of Texas law enforcement.

[Little Timmy · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very nice shorty history of this organization. Great pictures throughout and well laid of chapters. This is an excellent book for either a beginning history person or some one wanting to start their learning in this area. Very recommended

[Grant · Rating 5 out of 5]

A solid overview of the famed (and mythologized) Texas Rangers from their inception to the present.
