REVIEWS for One Ranger

“The writing smacks of the truths that are hard-won from a lifetime of dealing out justice--sometimes on horseback, like the Lone Ranger used to do--in a lonesome terrain where your word is only as good as the gun and the reputation that back it up.” —Texas Monthly

“A straight-shooting book that blows a few holes in the Ranger myth while providing more ammunition for the myth's continuation. . . . reads more like a novel than an autobiography.” —Austin American-Statesman
