Produktinformationen zu „Trainwreckers (ePub)“
It is the golden age of the steam locomotive. The transcontinental railroad has just been completed across America, and while Native American Indians are fighting for their survival in the western territories, scores of people are looking for entertainment.
Trainwreckers is inspired by the true-life exploits of Casey Jones, Joseph S. Connolly, and William G. Crust. Trainwreckers captures the spirit of the defiant, reckless age of the steam engine. This is a fictional account of Red Eagle, Doc Leonard, and Rachael Weatherford as they travel around the country staging head-on train wrecks for groups of adventuresome, frenzied, thrill seeking spectators looking for entertainment. The year is 1890 and the Wild West is in full swing.
When the crowds grow and more money flows, the Trainwreckers decide to stage the ultimate train crash, and only one person will survive. The great train crash takes on a national significance in the race for the presidency of the United States during the William Jennings Bryan presidential campaign in 1896 against the Republican Candidate and former Ohio governor William McKinley.
