While I will read most any first person account dealing with the American West, sometimes I am disappointed. After all, a lot of the authors are not really writers but are doing the best they can. Not so in this case. The author grew up in the eastern US, going to Texas - to become a rancher - at the tender age of 18. There are some humorous and not so humorous events which overtake him when he arrives but I won't spoil them for the potential reader. Jennings served with a company of Rangers for three years and during that time had many adventures. Some of them sound a bit exaggerated but the detail he gives along with his personal evaluations of the country and its people, make this a very interesting book. One surprise was the vernacular which seemed very modern for a book written in the late 19th century and made it easy to read. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to know how things really were in post-Civil War Texas, and how the Rangers helped to hold it together.
Today's situation in Texas is quite peaceful. The open range is all fenced in, and cattle are peacefully transported to feed lots, fatttened up a bit, and efficiently slaughtered. Bank robbers have given up, and we have video cameras everywhere. There is some turmoil about where one might want to pee, but indeed a microconcern. This is a quaint little book about our land 150 years ago. There are a few tall tales scattered through, and thee are much more complete historical accounts available, but take much longer to read. There is a nice account of the battle of San Jacinto that I remember helping one of my uncles get typeset and bound, which is the way things were done in 1960. They also made a big statue there.This book is especially valuable as a companion piece to COIN-FM-324, especially if you are a young American in Afghanistan recharging in Green Beans before your nightly mission. If oyu are on Amazon Prime...it's FREE!
I read several chapters last night and am not sure I will continue with the book. Many of the character's adventures read like a tall tale or campfire story leading me to believe this book is more fiction than fact. Another reviewer indicated the author took liberties with the truth in this book.
The book does give an interesting description of the everyday life of the Texas Ranger after the civil war. In some cases the author is given to hyperbole and inaccuracies. Some of his descriptions of the exploits of the outlaw John Wesley Hardin are fable. At the end of the book he describes how his friend Sims shot and killed Ben Thompson and King Fisher and was tried for it but acquitted. From another book on the matter. There was an inquiry the next day after the shooting in which the determination was that Ben Thompson and King Fisher were killed in self-defense at the hands of Foster, Sims business partner, and Coy, the saloon guard. There was no indictment or trial for their killings. Sims was there as a witness at the inquiry and did not claim to have shot them nor did he claim to even have a gun. It is also interesting that there were 13 bullet wounds in King Fisher and 9 in Ben Thompson. Sims must have had a hell of a six shooter. The autopsy on Ben Thomson found that most of the bullets came from a Winchester rifle. There were two witnesses interviewed by the Austin Texas newspaper, a salesman from Chicago and one from Kentucky. They had moved their seats closer to where the famous “desperados†were sitting so they could observe them. Per their account three people, Sims, Foster and Coy were standing on either side of the seated Thompson and Fisher, about two feet away. Thompson and Fisher suddenly stood up and the shooting started, coming from a theater box overlooking the vaudeville stage and gallery. Neither Fisher nor Thompson had a gun in their hand. Thomson and Fisher fell immediately and one of the remaining three took Ben Thompson’s gun and put a few bullets into each of the prone bodies. This was probably Sims since Foster and Coy had a gun. They stated that one of them, which would be Foster, tried to draw his gun but it caught and he shot himself in the leg. In a book written by the past editor of the San Antonio newspaper it was claimed that the inquiry was a sham. Three men, equipped with rifles, were placed in a theater box by Foster and Sims and each given 200 dollars after the killings and left town. He even names them, one a bartender, one a gambler and one a vaudeville actor.
The book, written by Jennings, was a very interesting read because you can tell there are life experiences involved by the slow evolving story.It kept my interest the entire way through the book. I even knew some people named Selmon in my youth in Callahan County Texas. It made the reading even more interesting.
The author served with the famed Texas Rangers as a young man for approximately three years. Despite the relatively short term of service, it was a very full experience, including some of the most famous exploits of the early days of the Rangers. Told with wit and self-deprecating humor, it is an easy and thoroughly enjoyable read.
I just couldn’t finish it. I just couldn’t. The writing is that poor. I know that writers sometime try to add some tension to the plot line in order to hold the reader’s attention but this pamphlet goes over the top with loads of blatantly fictitious conversations and sensationalized events. It reads like a script for a western B movie from RKO in the ’30’s.
We are thoroughly enjoying this read. I always have a book that I read aloud to my kids that are still at home. This is well worth it. It is believable stuff no matter the criticisms that others throw at the book. I accept that an author has some license in retelling of events in their life. I see this in my own family.It is very entertaining and gives an idea of law in Texas at the time of Jennings life.
