Winchester Warriors: Texas Rangers of Company D, 1874-1901

The Texas Rangers were institutionally birthed in 1874 with the formation of the Frontier Battalion. In an effort to put a human face on the Rangers, Alexander tells the story of one of the six companies of the Frontier Battalion, Company D, as--over time--it transforms from a unit of adventurous boys into a reasonably well-oiled law enforcement machine staffed by career-oriented lawmen.
