What started out as a two-year project that would chroncle the history of the much-revered Texas Rangers, turned out to be a five-year journey that exposes "a cult of glory" that reveals horrific truths. Doug J. Swanson's book rips of the veneer of that glory, showing how there history is riddled with vile massacres of Native Americans, murdering Mexicans at random and terrorizing Blacks throughout the state. Swanson is the author most recently of Blood Aces: The Wild Ride of Benny Binion, the Texas Gangster Who Created Vegas Poker. He was for many years an investigative reporter and editor at The Dallas Morning News.
