Savage Frontier Vol 1 1835 1837 Rangers Riflemen and Indian Wars in Texas

Savage Frontier represents a comprehensive study of the formative years of the legendary Texas Rangers, focusing on the three-year period between 1835 and 1837, when Texas was struggling to gain its independence from Mexico and assert itself as a new nation. Stephen Moore vividly portrays another struggle of the settlers of Texas to tame a wilderness frontier and secure a safe place to build their homes and raise their families. The author uses extensive primary records and accounts to document the organization of early ranger units and their activities.

Of particular interest to the reader will be the various rosters of these early ranger companies, which are found throughout the book. Many of these muster rolls have been compiled from multiple sources and have never been published before.
