1913. The Texan Scouts is the second in the three-volume series, which includes The Texan Star and The Texan Triumph, and concerns the fortunes of Ned Fulton and his friends. The book begins: The horseman rode slowly toward the west, stopping once or twice to examine the wide circle of the horizon with eyes that were trained to note every aspect of the wilderness. On his right the plains melted away in gentle swell after swell, until they met the horizon. Their brown surface was broken only by the spiked and thorny cactus and stray bits of chaparral.
