Karl Thomson

Three Texas Rangers: The Republic of Texas 1836-1845 Karl Thomson

While this book is fiction, most of the action is based on reality and early life in Texas. While much of this book seems beyond our ability to believe today, life was more than most of our made up superheroes today. This book takes us from the early days of Texas through its fighter for independence and the Mexican-American War to the seemingly impossible start of a new nation that reached the Gulf of Mexico into what is now Wyoming. As a nation, Texas covered part of Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Kansas and of course, Texas. During much of that time, a modern day school bus would have held all the lawmen in the nation of Texas. These early years are full of excitement, heartbreak, hopes, dreams, love, fighting and death.
