Texas Rangers had patrolled on horseback since the early days of
the Republic. Texas military heritage, born in a revolution from
Mexico in the 1830s and maturing in the Mexican-American War of the
1840s, shaped all who lived there. Now, years later, a handful of
these veterans and a generation raised in this heritage would make
a colorful and heroic contribution to the Civil War as unique and
independent "horse soldiers." This is the picturesque story of
their battles and skirmishes where the often outnumbered cavalry,
through bravado or sheer madness, frequently helped turn the tide
of battle . . . from Colonel Parsons' assault on the Federal Navy
during the Red River Campaign of 1864 to Terry's Texas Rangers with
General Wheeler's horsemen tirelessly badgering Sherman on his
"March to the Sea," it's all here. A lively and picturesque
narration by a respected historian.
