Short description
Texas never had a law against being stupid. Young Trace LaFon counted that a good thing or he’d never have lived long enough to become a Texas Ranger at 17 or partnered up with Xavier Falcon. But the two become a part of history the very first time the Rangers were ever used as an arm of law enforcement in the Lone Star state. Guns Along The Rio is the first of the pair’s adventures.
Guns Along The Rio is the first adventure for young Trace LaFon and his partner, Xavier Falcon, two 17-year-olds who join the Texas Rangers and grow up on the frontier gaining experience and wisdom mixed with cowboy common sense and humor. As any cowpoke knows, good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of experience comes from bad judgment. Colorful and historical characters make up this tale base on “The Cortina War” of 1859 along the Texas-Mexican border, the Rio Grande river. This great river, also known as the Rio Bravo, is the scene of running gunfights and standing firefights in the days of black powder, cap and ball pistols, Bowie knives and Texas grit.
