Produktbeschreibung
In "The Huge Hunter; Or, The Steam Man of the Prairies," Edward Sylvester Ellis combines adventure, science fiction, and a touch of the supernatural to illuminate the tensions of industrial progress and the untamed American West. Set against the backdrop of the expansive prairies, the novel features a remarkable steam-powered man, a marvel of technology that embodies both the promise and peril of innovation. Ellis's narrative, characterized by a vigorous and accessible prose style, reflects the literary trends of the late 19th century, as it seeks to entertain while simultaneously engaging with themes of exploration, reconciliation with nature, and the emergence of mechanization in everyday life. Edward Sylvester Ellis was an accomplished author and a prominent figure in American pulp fiction, known for his ability to captivate young audiences through thrilling tales. His experiences with the American frontier, along with a strong educational background in literature, profoundly influenced his writing. "The Huge Hunter" showcases Ellis's fascination with machinery and technology, which he believed shaped the future trajectory of society, reflecting both his optimism and caution towards progress. This novel is a compelling read for those intrigued by early science fiction, American history, and the exploration of human ingenuity. Ellis's engaging storytelling makes it a perfect candidate for both avid readers and those who cherish the intersection of man and machine, inviting them to ponder the implications of progress while enjoying a richly woven tale.

Autorenporträt
American novelist Edward Sylvester Ellis was born in Ohio on April 11, 1840, and passed away on June 20, 1916, in Cliff Island, Maine. Ellis was a journalist, educator, and administrator of a school. He also wrote hundreds of books and magazine articles under a variety of pen names. The Steam Man of the Prairies and Seth Jones, or the Captives of the Frontier are two of Ellis's well-known fiction pieces. In other countries, Edward S. Ellis is arguably best known for his Deerfoot books, which up until the 1950s were frequently read by young boys. The most important of Beadle and Adams's early dime books was Seth Jones. Seth Jones is reputed to have been one of Abraham Lincoln's favorite tales. Later, Ellis started producing more important pieces of history, biography, and argumentation. The biography "The Life of Colonel David Crockett," which told the tale of the speech known as "Not Yours To Give," was noteworthy.
