Overview
\"A revealing study of the connections between nineteenth-century technological fiction and American religious faith. In this work, Nathaniel Williams analyzes the genre of technology-themed exploration novels--dime novel adventure stories featuring steam-powered and electrified robots, airships, and submersibles. This genre proliferated during the same cultural moment when evolutionary science was dismantling Americans' prevailing, biblically based understanding of human history\"-- Provided by publisher.
