Notes for a History of Steam Navigation (1881)
George Henry Preble
This is a story of a wandering soul of the 50s & 60s, he is A cad, A bounder, An undefeated warrior whose beliefs in his country are turned upside down, and challenged, and put to the test. This story is not just about him but all the other wandering souls out there, as it happens frequently during this time period in history, overseas and at home. Professional soldiers and America’s sons & daughters are prematurely being thrust into adulthood in a war zone or in an American city against their own people. Goodwill is a lot like most of them, not prepared for death but ready to face the ugliness of combat with enthusiasm for his country, which has sent him to Vietnam. Goodwill comes of age faster than he thought possible, as he is thrust into a position very few people get or want, as every day on his job he will kill the enemy or his own troops with the slip of his thought train.
