Hi Anna, The Lone Ranger was kind of a cultural icon for a generation or more here. Unfortunately I can't tell you anything about it because I'm too young to have seen the TV shows or heard the radio dramas. When I have a literature assignment what I often do if I want more info on a book is go online and search Google for the title of the book, or the title of the particular story, that I'm reading. You do find a lot of sales sites, but you'll often find sites with commentary on the plot, characters, background, etc. That should give you some ideas at least. Knowing the cultural context of a work is very helpful for trying to understand its purpose. Actually, it surprises me a little that this is assigned for a class, although I don't know why. <grin> Hth, Kellie
