Extraordinary Man, Good Book,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Ben Mcculloch and the Frontier Military Tradition (Civil War America) (Hardcover)
This is an excellent biography of an extraordinary man, Ben McCulloch, the "Where's Waldo" of history. There is seemingly no event McCulloch wasn't at least peripherally connected to in the formative years of Texas and the period up to his death in the Civil War. One drawback to the book, in my opinion: the abysmally inadequate maps. When discussing military operations such as McCulloch's, they are absolutely vital to understanding the narrative. Other than that, it's a riveting read. Truth is better than fiction, at least in this case.

The Texas Rangers Military tranditions,
This review is from: Ben Mcculloch and the Frontier Military Tradition (Civil War America) (Hardcover)
This is an excellent book for anyone interested in the early years of the Texas Rangers when they were a para military force and the beginning of their transition to the modern law enforcement agency. McCulloch played a critical role in these events>
