A propos de cet article

224 Pages Indexed. No defects noted. Interior text and photo pages are flawless. Texas Ranger Captain Gonzaullas went into lots of fights by himself, and came out by himself and that's why the nickname Lone Wolf stuck. In this book the author describes Gonzaullas's career, first as a major in the Mexican Army and then as an agent of the U. S. Treasury Department, before he joined the Rangers in 1920. Although trained as an old-style Texas Ranger, Gonzaullas was an early advocate of scientific crime-detection methods and was instrumental in setting up the states first modern crime-detection facility. His many cases included the Santa Claus bank robbery in Cisco, the famous courtroom burning and lynching in Sherman, the race riots in Beaumont, and the Phantom Killer episode near Texarkana. Following his retirement in 1951, Gonzaullas developed a career as a Hollywood technical adviser. Illustrated with many photographs of Gonzaullas, his associates, and his weaponry, this edition also includes a new introduction by Texas Ranger historian Harold J. Weiss, Jr. Contents in 18 Chapters: Baptism of Fire, North Texas Cleanup, Even the Cows Were Drunk, Indicted for Murder, On Again Off Again, Santa Claus Is a Thief, Purification at Borger, Thwarting a Panhandle Mob, Sherman the Prisoner Was Roasted Alive, Boom in East Texas, First of the New-Type Rangers, Science Against the Criminal, Sixth Sense at Work, Martial Law at Beaumont, The Phantom Killer, Manhunt in East Texas, A Fitting Climax, and The Last Years. Photo on the cover is Gonzaullas on Charcoal at Texas Ranger encampment near Marshall, Texas in early 1940s.…
