Thomas Dickerson - Texas Ranger - Tapa blanda

Tom turned his attention to the youngster and to his surprise saw it was a young girl, a young American girl. She was huddled, her arms around her trembling body, and sobbing from the pain. The shirt she was wearing was in shreds. There was blood coming from several lacerations, along her back side." Thomas Dickerson - Texas Ranger is fiction, but is based on actual events that occurred during the years following the Civil War. As Indians marauded Western lands and outlaws ran rampant, the Texas Rangers were a lone force for justice and were hard pressed to keep the peace. Several short stories fill out this novel, but a much larger story is being told. Action, adventure, history and romance all combine to picture the hardships of frontier living. As the story starts, sixteen-year-old Thomas Dickerson is one of only a few survivors of an Indian raid on a wagon train. Captain Samuel McMurry, the commander of a Texas Ranger outpost, offers him a job. Soon Thomas is sworn in as a Texas Ranger and begins his new life. This Western adventure follows Thomas as he rides into danger and forges a new life for himself and the girl who loves him. Author James R. Brady Sr. is the father of five and grandfather of four. "I grew up loving a good Western story, but the books I read after becoming an adult left something to be desired." Now retired and living in Lawrenceburg, Tennessee, writing is his pastime. He has finished his next book. Publisher's website: http://www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/ThomasDickersonTexasRanger.html
