The Lone Ranger and the Legion of the Black Arrow Book One: A New Mission

The longest adventure in the history of The Lone Ranger begins here.

The longest adventure in the history of The Lone Ranger begins here.

A mysterious organization known only as the Black Arrow is quietly spreading across the American frontier. Hidden behind respected citizens, secret symbols, and carefully laid plans, its leaders dream of overthrowing the government and replacing it with their own rule. Even the finest lawmen cannot see the danger—or identify the enemy.

Only one man recognizes that the scattered crimes are part of something much larger.

The Lone Ranger and Tonto begin a perilous investigation that will carry them across the West, uncovering secret agents, hidden alliances, and a conspiracy unlike anything they have faced before. Their journey will eventually lead to one of the most remarkable encounters in radio history—an unforgettable meeting with Abraham Lincoln that reveals the deeper purpose behind the masked rider’s lifelong mission.

Originally broadcast in 1941–1942, The Legion of the Black Arrow is the longest continuous story ever produced for The Lone Ranger radio program. Presented here in six books, this epic serial unfolds like a classic adventure novel, one chapter at a time.

Book One includes Episodes 1–10:

  • A New Mission

  • Outlaws Plan an Empire

  • First Encounter

  • The Bridge

  • United We Stand

  • Headlines on the Frontier

  • The Magic Belt

  • Sentinel Rock

  • Fire in the Night

  • Dark of the Moon

Settle in for nearly five hours of classic radio as one of America’s greatest heroes rides into his most ambitious adventure.
