DESCRIPTION :
On the Iron at Big Cloud by Frank L. Packard is a classic collection of stories centered on the early 20th-century railroad industry and the men who worked its tracks, often set against the remote backdrop of Big Cloud. This collection captures the human drama and grit behind the railroads, including loyalty, perseverance, and the trials of hard labor. With a mix of adventure and moral undertones, Packard’s tales provide a vivid look at the men who risked their lives on the iron, weaving tension and action into the human stories that make up the backbone of railroad life in that era.
