This review is from: Guns Across the Rio: A Texas Ranger in Old Mexico (Paperback)

150 miles of the US/Mexican Border and two dozen men to guard it. Today's newspaper or history. 1915, a border war in the making as the Texas Rangers guard the border against flying raids of bandits taking advantage of a country with little government.
One ranger caught across the border wages a war of nerves & plots to protect his family, stop all out war between the two countries and survive with a price on his head. Excitement from the first word keeps the reader's eyes glued to the page.
Excitement again for lovers of western fiction, this one by a true Texan rings with authenticity and an intimate knowledge of this little known period of western development.
We are looking forward to the second installment of the Border Trilogy.
Nash Black, author of TRAVELERS and SINS OF THE FATHERS.

This is a captivating story with lovable characters. There is just the right amount of excitement, historical reference and Spanish language smattered throughout to make this book authentic and informative but easy and pleasant reading. I am anxious to see more from this author.

Dac Crossley writes an engaging western. I found it hard to put this book down. It was full of excitement, suspense and beautifully written characters that make you want more. I'm looking forward to the sequel of Guns Across the Rio to see where Nacho and his Taxes Ranger buddies end up.
