Flesh
By Detzer, Karl W.
In the twilight of the age of horses and steam, an old fireman refuses to surrender to the roaring tide of gasoline engines. When a stubborn chief's principles cost him everything he's built, one last blaze in a forgotten northern town may prove that true courage—and true skill—can't be measured in horsepower alone. A stirring tale of loyalty, pride, and the fierce refusal to let the old ways die quietly.
