"They were men who could not be
stampeded," said the late Colonel Homer Garrison Jr. of the men who wore
the badge of the Texas Rangers.
Colonist Stephen F. Austin, during
the earliest days of Anglo settlement in Texas wrote that he would "...employ
10 men to act as 'rangers' for the common defense..." and thus the famous
Texas Rangers came into being. An important part of Texas history,
these few good men were distinguished, unique even among themselves, and
soon, even mythical. The myths and traditions surrounding the Texas
Rangers have endured and evolved. Today the Texas Rangers are among
the most respected law enforcement agencies in the world.
"Texas Ranger Tales" is a collection
of legendary Texas Ranger stories, from new takes on the famous tales to
fresh stories few, if any, Have Heard.
