A trilogy of Texas Ranger stories featuring a ranger by the name of Rusty Shannon, and an ongoing feud with several generations of Comanche warriors, set against a cast of other fascinating characters.
The three Lewis brothers, Andrew, Michael, and James, join with rebels such as Jim Bowie, William Barret Travis, and Davy Crockett to fight for the independence of Texas from Mexico in the 1830s.
In 1861, Rusty Shannon, whose family was killed by a Comanche war party twenty years earlier, rides out from the family homestead to join a company of Texas volunteers dedicated to protecting settlers against Indian raids.
