The greatest lawmen the world has ever known! Shoot first; ask questions later. Perhaps that was the unofficial philosophy of a group of adventurous young men formed to protect Texas in the mid-19th century. But who could blame them? Texas truly was the wild West. Meet some of the greatest lawmen the world has ever known in Texas Rangers, previously seen on public television, including Jack Hays, who won a battle despite being outnumbered 100 to 1. Then, there s Leander McNelly, who with 40 other Rangers established order in the Rio Grande Valley despite Robert E. Lees opinion that it would take 20,000 men to do so! Plus, find out why the Ranger responsible for putting an end to Bonnie and Clydes crime spree, simply gave his gun away.

Outlaws & Gunslingers

2009

The year was 1865. The nation s bloodiest conflict, the Civil War, had just ended. It tore the nation apart, into North and South, Republican and Democrat. It spawned a new generation of weapons designed only to kill men, and it trained a generation of men to kill other men. From this year forward for the next 35 years, the South and the North would continue the war in the Wild West. Out of the devastated South rode the most famous of the outlaw gangs, the James and Youngers and the Daltons. From the North rode the most famous of the lawmen Wild Bill Hickok, Wyatt Earp and Bat Masterson. All of these characters would clash in the hills of Missouri...The cow towns of Kansas...And the mining towns of Arizona. Towns such as Northfield, Minnesota, Deadwood, South Dakota and Tombstone, Arizona would blaze into American folklore.
