Im
impatiently awaiting the second volume of an exhaustively researched
study of the pervasive violence that confronted the newborn Texas
Rangers even in colonial days... Seasoned scholars of Texas Ranger
rosters and raids by tribesmen will find new material.
Kent
Biffle, The Dallas Morning News, October 20, 2002
"The
contents are masterfully and chronologically organized into a work
that explains the big picture of what was happening during the Texas
Revolution. Every major battle is mentioned, along with the role
played by the Ranging Corps. This is not a rehash of old 1890 memories,
although some recollection snippets are included. Above all, this
is fresh material that most people have not seen. Savage Frontier
belongs in every Texian library."
James
Gray, Bookshelf review for The Alamo Society
Moore
maintains his focus throughout, guiding the reader through the maze
of administrative problems of a fledgling nation in almost constant
conflict... It is a must read for all who appreciate the struggles
of early Texas.
Chuck
Parsons, Texas Ranger Dispatch Magazine, Issue 9
Savage
Frontier is a good read, and it will have a special place on
