 Set during the American Civil War of the 1860s,  Texas Rangers  is a story about a group of men (James Van Der Beek, Usher Raymond, Randy Travis, Ashton Kutcher, and Robert Patrick) determined to maintain peace and contain the chaos that is erupting on the Texan frontier. Native Americans are attempting to reclaim their land, Mexicans are pouring over the U.S. border, and renegade outlaws are tearing up the state, so the Texas Rangers swear to protect the innocent and their loved. To do so, they must be willing to maintain the peace where law enforcement cannot, fight while they are out-manned and out-armed by the opponent, and be willing to die for the freedom for which they fight.
