Back Jacket

'The Texas Rangers' depicts men whose influence was worked not by recklessness or foolhardiness, but by the steadiness of their purpose and performance. Also contributing was their sureness, among both the law-abiding and the law-breaking, that thought of self would never deter the Rangers from fulfilling the commitment of their vows as agents of law, order, and justice.
