"With a rat-a-tat pace and a wicked sense of humor, Keller uses the story of Gatling's famous machine gun to take us on an exuberant and entertaining tour through American capitalism in the nineteenth century. This book is a carnival for history buffs - bursting with colorful characters, uncanny connections, and contagious enthusiasm." - Debby Applegate, 2007 Pulitzer Prize winner. "Julia Keller has not only given us the fascinating story of the Gatling gun and its colorful inventor, but has also place it in a valid and original context. She takes us into the middle of nineteenth-century America as it really was: a westward-looking continent packed with dreams, energy, and ambitious practical ideas, a place where mechanical inventions created a vision of limitless power that shaped much of the nation's philosophy and destiny. This is the story of the artfcact as changing history, the early machine gun as bringing about as great a transformation as the simple stirrup did in its era. If you haven't heard of Julia Keller, you'll hear of her now." - Charles Bracelen Flood, author and past president of PEN American Center. "In 1862, with the Civil War lapping at his foorstep, an Indianapolis inventor and businessman named Richard Jordan Gatling created the world's first working machine gun. He naively hoped it would shorten or even eliminate war by reducing the number of soldiers needed to fight. The overwhelming effectiveness of a multiple-firing weapon would, he reasoned, cause opponents to throw in the towel. Instead, it kicked off a worldwide escalation in the armaments business and opened a path toward modern gunnery, one that leads all the way to the AK-47. The Gatling gun was the original weapon of mass destruction. Julia Keller is a Pulitzer Prize-winning writer who brings her investigative as well as literary talents to this provocative work of American history. As Keller observes, we're a country that thinks it's built on peace and freedom, but has blasted and conquered its way to world domination. Gatling is also a durable American type - a foward-thinking businessman who hawked his goods at state fairs and public lectures, recognized early on the possibilities of the global marketplace, and, step by step, helped propell America onto the world scene. The Gatling gun would paly a vital role in protecting and expanding America's overseas interests. Gatling himself, famous in his own time for creating and improving many industrial desigs, from bicycles and steamship propellers to flush toilets, always maintained that his gun would save lives by decreasing the size of armies. The scientists who unleashed America's atomic arsenal less than a century later would see things much the same way. In Mr. Gatling's Terrible Marvel, Julia Keller offers a riveting account of the Gatling gun's invention, its misunderstood creator, and its tremendous impact on American and world events. She also shows how the gun, in its combination of ingenuity, idealism, and destructive power, perfectly exemplified the paradox of America's rise as a world superpower." - from the inner front jacket flap.
