Abstract
Throughout this thesis, I look at the influences behind Main Street and The Changing of the Guard rather than the novels themselves. I present the hometowns of Lewis and Scholl and investigate the lives of these two authors but make no effort to exclusively define them. The accumulation of information is not exhaustive and the interpretations are my own, but this initial exploration will provide insights into the novels that may have gone unexplained.
