John B. Armstrong, Texas Ranger and Pioneer Ranchman (Canseco-Keck History Series)
". . . exceptionally well-researched from a number of primary and  secondary sources . . . the definitive study of Armstrong. Armstrong's  story is worth telling and Parsons tells it well." --Jerry Thompson, Series Editor"Armstrong was a hero for the ages, a man of high integrity and  no-nonsense values. He was truly one of the great Texas Rangers. Achilles  may have had Homer, but Armstrong, thank heaven, has Parsons." --David Johnson, author ofThe Mason County "Hoo Doo" War,  1874-1902" . . . a lively and riveting read, particularly in the chapters that deal with Armstrong's rangering days." --Victoria-Advocate,February 2007"This biography of Armstrong is long overdue and fills a glaring hole in Texas Ranger History. It is an exceptional value and a major contribution to the genre." --Quarterly of the National Association for Outlaw and Lawman History,Spring 2007
