Steel Drivin' Man

Author: Scott Reynolds Nelson
Stars: 3
Review by: Mandy Apgar


Embarking on a journey with his wife's battered car and their labrador Riley, the author delves into who was the origin of the John Henry mythos. Very quickly he discovers that there could very well have been a historical basis to the character, and although just because someone named John William Henry is buried in a white churchyard, was a railroad employee that died in an accident, and a few other things do not exactly guarantee that I am 100% convinced he sure runs with his ideas.
