The absence of a biography has been mystifying given this Texas Ranger's accomplishments. The void has now been filled very admirably. Co-authors Chuck Parsons and Marianne E. Hall Little have focused their prodigious research talents upon McNelly and his "Special Forces", the Washington County volunteer Militia Company far better known as Texas Rangers. McNelly even made his mark upon our national history by invading Mexico and creating an international furor requiring diplomatic action from Washington D.C.

Summary
The first authentic biography of one of the most famous of the nineteenth century Texas Rangers -- Captain Leander H. McNelly. No history of the murderous Sutton-Taylor Feud, or of the Texas State Police, or of the depredations of the Mexican General Juan H. Cortina, or of the rancher Richard King, or of the infamous Nueces Strip can be written without major emphases on the influence of McNelly and the men who followed him so loyally.
