To quote from the book: "A Texas Ranger, by reputation, rides like a Comanche, shoots like a Kentuckian, and fears no man or beast. In the Rangers you go where you're sent, often alone, and you do your job and rejoin your company. Sometimes that won't be for a year or tow. But a Ranger soon learns not to ruin his voice yelling for help because there usually isn't any. We don't wear a uniform and we don't want one; that's the kind of men we breed...." Jim Temple decided to make a change in his life and he decided a Ranger is who he wanted to be. Wade Everett AKA Will Everett Cook writes an intertaining novel about what it like to be a Texas Ranger--the hardship, the loneliness, the resistance of local law, all the things that make the job harder--even the strain in puts on a relationship. No writer does it any better.
