10 Of The Bloodiest Battles Ever Fought Between The Texas Rangers and The Comanche

In the entirety of American history, few rivalries have been as fierce and fearsome as that between the venerable Comanche Empire and the Texas Rangers. The Comanche, with their combination of strategic brilliance, tactical prowess and ruthless reputation, forestalled American expansion in Texas for the better part of a century.

The Texas Rangers provided basically the only consequential resistance against the Comanche, and even then, the battles between these two factions often resulted in stories too brutal to be told in their totality on the silver-screen.

Here now, History At The OK Corral Brings Ten of the Most Brutal Battles Ever Fought Between The Texas Rangers and The Comanche.
