While the Alamo is the undisputed symbol of Texas, the Ranger stands as an enduring symbol of the people of Texas. The Rangers were first formed to protect their neighbours from Indian attack, later they fought and died in a war for freedom, and staved off foreign invasion. Some Rangers died with glory at the Alamo, while many more were wounded, or died, in anonymity at dozens of obscure places. This volume by Dr Stephen L Hardin charts the history of this remarkable force from the 1820s through to the present day. 610 20 $a Texas Rangers. 700 1 $a Hook, Richard. 830 0 $a Elite series ; $v 36. 941 $a 1 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20140325020702.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2DC79604B3EB11E38723ADE5DAD10320 994 $a C0 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
