Kemosabe: The Story of the Lone Ranger

The Story of the Lone Ranger begins at the beginning. Six Texas Rangers enter Bryant’s Gap in pursuit of the Butch Cavendish gang. The gang ambushes them, and only one Ranger survives. Read new details of his meeting with Tonto. Learn how he acquired his name, his horse Silver, his silver bullets, and the reason for his mask. The Lone Ranger vows to track down the five members of the Cavendish gang who murdered his brother as well as the other four Rangers. As he and Tonto chase down the gang members one by one, they encounter many other adventures. They assist a young man wrongly accused of being a member of the Cavendish gang and come to the aid of a close friend of the Ranger’s, Jim Faraday, saving Jim and his silver mine from two bushwhackers intent on robbery. They deal with an Indian uprising, the kidnapping of a young woman, the lynching of a former slave, and a dishonest banker foreclosing a mortgage, where the Lone Ranger employs a card trick to resolve the situation. The Ranger’s final confrontation with Butch Cavendish has them both returning to Bryant’s Gap where, again, there will be but one survivor.
