Notes


Ellis "instigated Dime-Novel SF and the Edisonade through his instant adaptation of the historical Newark Steam Man of 1868 into a Western: The Steam Man of the Prairies ..." The boy inventor "creates a Steam Man (not a Robot, simply a man-shaped 30 mph steam engine with legs which cannot go into reverse), and travels west where he has adventures on the frontier, conquering Indians and other fauna." (underscore represents linked cross-reference) --Encyclopedia of Fantasy
