5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book, August 3, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: In the Line of Duty: Reflections of a Texas Ranger Private (Paperback)
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and highly recommend it. The author tells it as he saw it. Not the standard romanticized Texas Ranger book. Should be on the bookshelf of any afficianado of literature on law enforcement, Texas Rangers, or Texas history.

4.0 out of 5 stars An engaging look at the day to day life of a modern Ranger., June 4, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: In the Line of Duty: Reflections of a Texas Ranger Private (Paperback)
Rigler gives the reader insight into his life and experiences as a transition-era Texas Ranger. His was a time between the saddle-bound frontier types and the higher tech crime solving Rangers of today. The writing is clear and poignant with no apologies for the more primitive, yet more effective methods of crime fighting used by the Rangers of the previous generation. A devout Christian, Ranger Rigler acknowledges that he was somewhat atypical in appearance and demeanor, but no less effective in pursueing those on the wrong side of the law. An intriguing and satisfying read.
