Texas Wild II: The Adventures of Jack Hays and Other Texas Rangers (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798187348442)

The frontier wasn't won by armies. It was won by a handful of fearless men willing to ride where no one else dared.

The Republic of Texas is young, wild, and under constant threat. Comanche war parties sweep across the frontier. Mexican armies challenge the borders. Every trail could lead to an ambush, and every sunrise may be a Ranger's last.

Ride alongside legendary Texas Ranger Captain John Coffee "Jack" Hays and some of the greatest frontiersmen who ever lived, including Bigfoot Wallace, Samuel Hamilton Walker, Ben McCulloch, Hendrick Arnold, Kit Acklin, and Robert Addison Gillespie. Together they will face impossible odds, survive desperate battles, escape Mexican prisons, endure the infamous Black Bean Lottery, and help shape the untamed frontier that would become the State of Texas.

Blending documented history with vivid storytelling, Texas Wild II brings to life many of the true events that forged the legends of the Texas Rangers. While history provides the foundation, carefully crafted dialogue and narrative immerse readers in the courage, sacrifice, and brotherhood of the men who helped tame the American frontier.

From the rocky passes of the Texas Hill Country to the streets of Mier... from the deserts of northern Mexico to the beaches of Veracruz... this is a story of grit, loyalty, sacrifice, and the unbreakable spirit that helped build Texas.

Some legends are invented.

The Texas Rangers earned theirs.
