Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Story.......... Ray ‘Coop’ Cooper had been a bounty hunter for two years, but now after losing his partner to a medical condition, he considered putting his guns up since he no longer had a backup. In the midst of his last caper, his life was saved by a woman and a dog. After much haggling, the gal convinced him to take her on as his backup. After several successful capers, Ray saw the need to protect this impish gal called Elle—double E double L. Seeing the need for stability, the Duo purchased a gun-shop and spent time promoting it. Coop came to a realistic awareness that bounty hunting was too dangerous for a family man, and the slow pace of a gun-shop was not his style. It was serendipity when a neighbor convinced them to purchase a 2,500-acre woodlot, set up a state-of-the-are sawmill, get some training, and become millionaires in eight years. After a month of training in Houston, they returned with four friends, and proceeded to set up a sawmill. After growing woes and making changes, the team became proficient. In time they added a kiln, then enlarged it, added a planer, and organized the first known sawmill ‘open house’ to promote and sell their quality products.

See what Wisconsinites first read about Abraham Lincoln's election and assassination, Custer's last stand against the Sioux, the first votes by women, Henry Ford's $5 daily wage, the Saint Valentine's Day mob massacre in Chicago, the disappearance of Amelia Earhart as she attempted to fly around the world . . . and the wars, elections, crimes, and social revolutions that have defined the past century and a half. Each front page, reproduced from the original, is readable down to the smallest type. In 2002 the Wisconsin State Journal celebrates its Sesquicentennial, marking one hundred and fifty years of service to the people of Madison and the State of Wisconsin. The newspaper had an earlier inception as the Madison Express in 1839, when Madison was a territorial town on the frontier and statehood was still nine years away. Readers will notice the newspaper's appearance has changed nearly as much as have the methods of gathering the news and producing the paper. But readers' fascination with and hunger for the news of each day remain strong.

Download or read book Firearms of the Texas Rangers written by Doug Dukes and published by University of North Texas Press. This book was released on 2020-08-14 with total page 645 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From their founding in the 1820s up to the modern age, the Texas Rangers have shown the ability to adapt and survive. Part of that survival depended on their use of firearms. The evolving technology of these weapons often determined the effectiveness of these early day Rangers. John Coffee “Jack” Hays and Samuel Walker would leave their mark on the Rangers by incorporating new technology which allowed them to alter tactics when confronting their adversaries. The Frontier Battalion was created at about the same time as the Colt Peacemaker and the Winchester 73—these were the guns that “won the West.” Firearms of the Texas Rangers, with more than 180 photographs, tells the history of the Texas Rangers primarily through the use of their firearms. Author Doug Dukes narrates famous episodes in Ranger history, including Jack Hays and the Paterson, the Walker Colt, the McCulloch Colt Revolver (smuggled through the Union blockade during the Civil War), and the Frontier Battalion and their use of the Colt Peacemaker and Winchester and Sharps carbines. Readers will delight in learning of Frank Hamer’s marksmanship with his Colt Single Action Army and his Remington, along with Captain J.W. McCormick and his two .45 Colt pistols, complete with photos. Whether it was a Ranger in 1844 with his Paterson on patrol for Indians north of San Antonio, or a Ranger in 2016 with his LaRue 7.62 rifle working the Rio Grande looking for smugglers and terrorists, the technology may have changed, but the gritty job of the Rangers has not.
