The New York Times Best Seller

"Frank Hamer, last of the old breed of Texas Rangers, has not fared well in history or popular culture. John Boessenecker now restores this incredible Ranger to his proper place alongside such fabled lawmen as Wyatt Earp and Eliot Ness. Here is a grand adventure story, told with grace and authority by a master historian of American law enforcement. Frank Hamer can rest easy as readers will finally learn the truth behind his amazing career, spanning the end of the Wild West through the bloody days of the gangsters."
--Paul Andrew Hutton, author of The Apache Wars

To most Americans, Frank Hamer is known only as the "villain" of the 1967 film Bonnie and Clyde. Now, in Texas Ranger, historian John Boessenecker sets out to restore Hamer's good name and prove that he was, in fact, a classic American hero.

From the horseback days of the Old West through the gangster days of the 1930s, Hamer stood on the frontlines of some of the most important and exciting periods in American history. He participated in the Bandit War of 1915, survived the climactic gunfight in the last blood feud of the Old West, battled the Mexican Revolution's spillover across the border, protected African Americans from lynch mobs and the Ku Klux Klan, and ran down gangsters, bootleggers, and Communists. When at last his career came to an end, it was only when he ran up against another legendary Texan: Lyndon B. Johnson.

Written by one of the most acclaimed historians of the Old West, Texas Ranger is the first biography to tell the full story of this near-mythic lawman.

Absolutely love this book
Format: Paperback
Absolutely love this book! Echoes a lot of my experiences. if you're at all interested in working with nature spirits, I would highly suggest this book! He offers a very in depth account of his experiences and since this is the second edition, he also includes how differently he feels or sees some of the things he originally wrote.

Very interesting and detailed book.
Format: Paperback
This is the first book I purchased on this subject. Certainly not a simplistic book. It took me awhile to get used to his style of writing, and he introduces things I'd never heard of. I really had to pay attention. Most of what he refers to and talks about is based in Europe, so that was a surprise, and a pleasant one. I wish this country didn't appear to be ashamed of these subjects. I found that were the other lives the people, including the government are open to what he does, consulting with nature elementals. While I was reading this in my backyard, under my only tree (the city took down the other one), I experienced some insights of my own regarding man's interaction with nature. Who knows, maybe I will write my own book on that one day!

Awakening to reality of other realms
Format: Paperback
It has been a long-time of mankind's understanding of science that we have forgotten the things our ancient ancestors knew about our planet. There are other species of life here and there is an order that we don't control directly. We can work with the spirits of nature to create balance and plenty for our existence and theirs, or we can choose to ignore and continue on our path of Earth's destruction, and ultimately this also mean's our own demise. Here is a way to awaken to the elements of Nature and how we are supposed to work together.
