This fourth and final volume of the Savage Frontier series completes the history of the Texas Rangers and frontier warfare in the Republic of Texas era. During this period of time, fabled Captain John Coffee Hays and his small band of Rangers were often the only governmentauthorized frontier fighters employed to keep the peace.Author Stephen L. Moore covers the assembly of Texan forces to repel two Mexican incursions during 1842, the Vasquez and Woll invasions. This volume covers the resulting battle at Salado Creek, the defeat of Dawsons men, and a skirmish at Hondo Creek near San Antonio. Texas Rangers also played a role in the illfated Somervell and Mier expeditions.By 1844, Captain Hays Rangers had forever changed the nature of frontier warfare with the use of the Colt fiveshooter repeating pistol. This new weapon allowed his men to remain on horseback and keep up a continuous and deadly fire in the face of overwhelming odds, especially at Walkers Creek. Through extensive use of primary military documents and firstperson accounts, Moore sets the record straight on some of Jack Hays lesserknown Comanche encounters.For the exacting historian or genealogist of early Texas, the Savage Frontier series is an indispensable resource on early nineteenthcentury Texas frontier warfare.PRAISE FOR SAVAGE FRONTIER VOL IVMoores fourth and final volume of the Savage Frontier series contains many compelling battle narratives, but there is a wealth of social as well as military history lurking in these chapters.

And Why Do We Care So Much?The early 1840s was one of the most turbulent chapters in the history of the lower Rio Grande valley.

In addition, important genealogical material is given for anyone seeking the role of his or her ancestors in early Texas history.Chuck Parsons, Texas Ranger DispatchMoore has done an extraordinary job of exhaustively researching his subject.
