The Texas Rangers in Transition

From Gunfighters to Criminal Investigators, 1921-1935

Beschreibung

Harris and Sadler document the further and final change that followed when, in 1935, the Texas Rangers were moved from the governor's control to the newly created Department of Public Safety. This proved a watershed in the Rangers' history, marking their transformation into a modern law enforcement agency, the elite investigative force that they remain to this day.
