The Huge Hunter Or The Steam Man Of The Prairies is a classic novel written by Edward S. Ellis. The story follows the adventures of a group of hunters who encounter a giant mechanical man, powered by steam, on the American prairies. This steam man, built by a brilliant inventor, is capable of incredible feats of strength and speed. The hunters, led by a fearless frontiersman named Frank Reade, team up with the inventor and his daughter to take on a group of ruthless outlaws who are terrorizing the prairies. Along the way, they face a series of thrilling challenges and battles, including a showdown with a ferocious bear and a race against a locomotive. The Huge Hunter Or The Steam Man Of The Prairies is a thrilling adventure story that captures the excitement and danger of the American frontier.There seemed no limit to his inventive powers. He made a locomotive and then a steamboat, perfect in every part, even to the minutest, using nothing but his knife, hammer, and a small chisel. He constructed a clock with his jack-knife, which kept perfect time, and the articles which he made were wonderfully stared at at fairs, and in show windows, while Johnny modestly pegged away at some new idea. He became a master of the art of telegraphy without assistance from any one using merely a common school philosophy with which to acquire the alphabet.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
