| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "El Toro : A motor car story of interior Cuba" by E. Ralph Estep is an adventure travelogue written in the early 20th century. It recounts a small American team’s bid to drive a Packard across Cuba’s roadless interior, turning a business errand into a hard-bitten overland expedition. Led by Sidney D. Waldon with companions Edwin S. George, Fred Crebbin, the narrator, and their Cuban interpreter Rogelio, they confront stone trails, swamps, rivers, and mountain passes while sketching lively portraits of rural Cuban people and places far from tourist Havana. The opening of this travelogue follows the party from Havana’s smooth boulevard into a brutal landscape of rocks, ruts, and bridgeless rivers, where they camp in the open, bargain for food in palm‑thatched huts, and learn to hack paths and build makeshift brush causeways. They inch from Camp Solitude past Benavides and Tosca, pick up Rogelio at Matanzas, and thread sugar fields, dry riverbeds, and ox‑cart ruts, often fording streams and jacking the car over stone steps. After a swamp traps them at dusk, locals help lever the car free and christen it “El Toro,” and the crew roars triumphantly into Santa Clara by night. Misled toward Camajuani and caught in driving rain, they claw over the Santa Fe passes, corduroy bogs with palm trunks, and wade rivers before reaching Camajuani, then slog on via Placetas through mill yards jammed with bull‑drawn cane carts. Nights bring flea‑ridden cots, a balcony bunk, and finally hammocks in a pig shed at Casa Cinco. At last an old Spanish road delivers them over stone bridges into Sancti Spiritus, where crowds cheer—after which the climactic push ends quietly as they load El Toro onto a flatcar and leave by rail.
