Summary "Crooked Trails" by Frederic Remington is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the rugged and turbulent life of the Texas Rangers, depicting their encounters with Comanche warriors and Mexican bandits during a time of conflict and lawlessness in the American Southwest. Through vivid storytelling and illustrations, Remington captures the spirit of adventure and the harsh realities of frontier life. At the start of "Crooked Trails," readers are introduced to Colonel "Rip" Ford, an aging Texas Ranger who shares tales of his exploits from decades past. During an intimate gathering at the San Antonio Club, the Colonel recounts thrilling moments of battles against Native Americans and bandits, emphasizing the fierce resilience and bravery of the Rangers as they fought to protect their territory. As the narrative unfolds, the text portrays not only the valor and camaraderie of these early Texas lawmen but also the complexities of their encounters with both friends and foes in a landscape fraught with violence and survival.
