Border Style Oct 15, 2007
By Nash Black
"Troubadour"
150 miles of the US/Mexican Border and two dozen men to guard it. Today's newspaper or history. 1915, a border war in the making as the Texas Rangers guard the border against flying raids of bandits taking advantage of a country with little government.
One ranger caught across the border wages a war of nerves & plots to protect his family, stop all out war between the two countries and survive with a price on his head. Excitement from the first word keeps the reader's eyes glued to the page.
Excitement again for lovers of western fiction, this one by a true Texan rings with authenticity and an intimate knowledge of this little known period of western development.
We are looking forward to the second installment of the Border Trilogy.
Nash Black, author of TRAVELERS and SINS OF THE FATHERS.

excitingly historical Nov 26, 2007
By Debbie R. Folkerts
This is a captivating story with lovable characters. There is just the right amount of excitement, historical reference and Spanish language smattered throughout to make this book authentic and informative but easy and pleasant reading. I am anxious to see more from this author.

An engaging western novel Sep 27, 2007
By E Miller
Dac Crossley writes an engaging western. I found it hard to put this book down. It was full of excitement, suspense and beautifully written characters that make you want more. I'm looking forward to the sequel of Guns Across the Rio to see where Nacho and his Taxes Ranger buddies end up.

Review of the Border Series: First Book- Guns Across the Rio Jun 30, 2007
By Carol M. Cummings
"Paige Mercer Cummings"
I really enjoyed the fast-paced historical fiction based on the men who founded the Texas Rangers- and their fight to keep Texas safe from the bandit raiders of Mexico. Dac Crossley uses his knowledge and memories of his childhood in Texas to carefully plot out this intriguing story of the men who became the Texas Rangers. The characters are well developed; the timeline and historical concepts are carefully researched and appropriate to the story. The reader finds himself immersed in the sights, sounds and smells of old Texas.This is book One in the Border Series, I can't wait for book 2.

Great Western Nov 06, 2007
By J. V. Nabholz
A great read. I was hooked at the first chapter. What a way to start a story! And the story continues with suprising twists and turns. You will enjoy the last chapter as much as you enjoyed the first chapter.
If you liked this tale about the Texas-Rio Grande region, then you will like Bart Skelton's monthly feature in Guns and Ammo magazine. And likewise, if you like Bart Shelton, then you will like this book.
Enjoy.
