two books to be reviewed in the near future(your call on near and future)are:
   the texas rangers
   author- walter prescott webb
   1st printing- 1935
    a primar in texas ranger history by a world recognised historian. not new and many have read it, it was required reading for many years in history classes. really began or started a formal postulation of the history of the rangers.
     if anyone else has/wants to review this book before i get around too it please do not hesitate--your observations will probable be better than mine.
     rip ford's texas
    author john salmon ford     edited by- stephen b, oates
     published by- university of texas press. (aggies have the right to read things published by ut press---if they can read that is :lol:  :lol: )               blessings
