A hunchbacked boy of fifteen builds a man of iron that walks, driven by a steam boiler in its chest, and hitches it to a wagon for the prairies. Ellis was an Ohio schoolteacher who sold his first dime novel at twenty and never stopped, writing hundreds under a dozen names; this 1868 story is the first science fiction the American mass market produced, and every robot since is downstream of it.
