The Lone Star Ranger: A Romance Of The Border
About the Book
In 1914, Zane Grey released the Western book, The Lone Star Ranger. The Texas Rangers, a well-known group of incredibly skilled law enforcement officials, are several of the key characters in the book, which is set in the Lone Star State of Texas. It recounts the life of Buck Duane, an individual who turns into an outlaw before earning the respect of the authorities. The Texas Ranger John Hughes received a dedication in the book. The book has a plot summary that starts with Buck The son of a well-known bandit, Duane. Even though an outlaw isn't always a criminal, it's still awful if the Rangers label him as one because it means he's being chased. After defending himself by killing a man, Duane is forced to "go on the dodge." Duane shows up at a criminal's lair, still abhorring the idea of being an outlaw. Even worse, he spends years being haunted by all the men he kills. He meets a kidnapped, attractive young woman at the bandit hideout and wants to set her free. In the second section of the book, Duane enlists with the Rangers in order to assist in purging the frontier of significant cattle rustlers.
