Paperback. Zustand: Fair. Although Jim Bowie and Davy Crockett were more celebrated, Buck Barry did as much or more to tame the Old Southwest. During a long and useful life he was a professional soldier, stock farmer, sheriff, and member of the legislature. His memoirs are never dull, and no wonder.

Then he confronted the daily perils of ranching in Bosque County, Texas. Peace officer, legislator, he served his people well even to the neglect of his private advantage. Such is the tribute of the historian James K. Greer, who edited Buck Barry's private papers and reminiscences and shaped them into this book. …
