Texas Ranger - Branch Logan - I Will Defend What's Mine (Texas Ranger Branch Logan, #1)
Description
Saddle up and ride the same wild lonesome trails as Texas Ranger Branch Logan did in the 1870's thru the 1890's.
Long and lean with a heart as big as the Texas sky, Ranger Logan travels throughout the territories of the Southwest during the height of America's expansion westward. From rough and tumble gold and silver mining country to savage wide open high plains, the Ranger pursued outlaws and rustlers, extending the rule of law to the new territories.
From the Oklahoma deserts to the beaches of California he traveled by horseback, stagecoach and train to end the careers of ruthless gold and silver stealing, cattle rustling, land grabbing thieves and murderers.
Feel the dry heat of hot desert floors and the bitter cold of snow-covered mountain passes, as he gets shot, survives, as he goes after the lawless men.

Person
P.L. Thompson writes 'true' historical western fiction. Every location is, or was, true to the times... the 1870s through 1912. Names of towns that no longer exist (or names that have been changed) come to life before your very eyes, page after exciting page. Towns, canyons and creeks you might have walked through on your vacation in the southwest are named correctly. Every location used in this novel may be visited today. Most of the country Thompson writes about, he has ridden over on horseback more than once. Before starting to write his novels, he did fifteen years of extensive research on top of the knowledge he already had gained from living his life in Texas. His love of cattle, horses, and the whole southwest, with its wide-open spaces, inspired him to write novels that express the beauty of the Southwest in print.
