At twenty-one, he was considered the best broncobuster in his part of Texas. In the 1880s, he was a Texas Ranger and took part in the last fight between the Rangers and the Indians. His personal acquaintances included outlaws and grizzly bears, and \"the hurricane deck of a Western mustang was his throne. He rode high and wide until drought and barbed wire closed in and open range was no more.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In addition to newfound heroes, readers will meet many old friends here: Captain George W.
