"Even Walter Prescott Webb's THE TEXAS RANGERS (held to be the definitive work on same) doesn't pack as much of the aura of Ranger service. Gillett joined the Rangers in 1875 at age 18, but he never succumbs to the deification process so many writers (including Webb) stumble through when recalling those gods of the frontier. Gillett is careful, but not academic." --A.C. Greene THE 50 BEST BOOKS ON TEXAS
