" ~from the Introduction. In the first and only fully illustrated history of the Texas Rangers, Thomas Knowles brings to life the early decades of the Lone Star's defenders. Discover their origins as mounted volunteers and track their evolution into loose~knit militia in the service of Texas, special U.S. forces during the Mexican War, and highly~respected cavalry units for the Confederacy. Along the way, meet some of the most famous heroes who served with the Texas Rangers: Samuel Walker, Benjamin McCulloch, "Rip" Ford, Noah Smithwick, and the most famous of Ranger captains, Jack Hays. Always outnumbered and often alone, the Rangers confronted the fierce challenges of the frontier with skills and weapons adapted to their needs, providing them the means to "ride like Mexicans, track like Indians, shoot like Tennesseeans, and fight like the very Devil himself." They Rode for the Lone Star burns away the myths and excavates a rich and detailed history of the Rangers' first decades of service, as their roles and organization changed to meet the demands of a young and turbulent Texas. They patrolled the fringes of the colonies, clashed with the armies of Santa Anna in the struggle for Texas independence, strengthened the borders of the Republic, waged bloody war in Mexico after U.S. annexation, and rode into combat against the blue~outfitted Union army under the flag of the Confederacy. With a historian's broad perspective and a novelist's imagery and characterization, Knowles renders a vivid depiction of the Rangers' deeds and development, from their inception as Stephen F. Austin's ideal of mounted volunteers through their service in the Civil War. From citizen soldiers and scouts to lawmen and militia, the Texas Rangers have protected the state's vast frontier since its early settlement. Their living legend inspired countless dime novels and movie serials, and later gave life to such icons as The Lone Ranger, Ranger captains Augustus McCrae and Woodrow F. Call of Lonesome Dove, and Walker, Texas Ranger. The stories and larger~than~life personalities that fill the pages of They Rode for the Lone Star give ample proof of the Rangers' ability to spark the imaginations of those who love tales of Texas and the Old West.

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. 1st Edition. xx, 234 pages : illustrations (some color), maps ; 29 cm ; ISBN 9780878332052, 0878332057 ; OCLC 768255178 ; red cloth in color photographic dustjacket ; Following the success of Knowles's critically-acclaimed They Rode for the Lone Star: The Saga of the…Texas Rangers, The Birth of Texas -- The Civil War, this second volume completes the saga of Texas' original lawmen. Tracing the state's transformation after the Civil War, The Border Wars -- The 21st Century chronicles the force as they evolved from the frontier's finest combat cavalry soldiers into the Wild West's most effective lawmen, and finally into elite officers of one of the modern world's most respected law enforcement agencies. They Rode for the Lone Star follows the Rangers through a half-century of border wars with Mexico. It recounts the Frontier Battalion's final Indian fights as they drove their enemies along the Black Road to defeat and the Special State Troops' capture of outlaws such as Sam Bass and John Wesley Hardin. The twentieth century brought forth a host of social ills and dangers. They Rode for the Lone Star documents agency activities in this century including: -- M. T. Lone Wolf Gonzaullas's fight against organized criminal gangs drunk on wildcat oil, dirty money, and bootleg liquor -- Red Burton's famous stand against the Ku Klux Klan -- Frank Hamer's 102-day interstate manhunt for notorious killers Bonnie and Clyde. This new volume follows the contemporary Ranger force as they combat high-tech extortionists, kidnappers, and serial killers with the latest tools in the arsenal of modern criminal science. Knowles also examines how the legends of the Rangers drew from reality. The stories and larger-than-life personalities that fill the pages of They Rode for the Lone Star give ample proof of the Texas Rangers' ability to spark the imaginations of all readers, those who love tales of the Old West and those who honor the traditions of the law enforcement profession. ; Thomas W. Knowles has worked as a reporter, photographer, columnist, and news editor, as a program coordinator and instructor at Texas A&M ; FINE/FINE. Book.
