| 520 | _a"The Cinder Buggy: A Fable in Iron and Steel" by Garet Garrett is a novel written in the early 20th century. It explores themes of industry, community, and the passage of time through the story of New Damascus, a once-thriving iron town now in decline. The narrative includes various characters, such as Aaron Breakspeare, and his interactions with Enoch Gib, as well as their struggle to revitalize the iron industry against changing technologies and personal rivalries. At the start of the story, New Damascus is depicted as a town steeped in history, known primarily for its high-quality wrought iron craftsmanship despite its decline in population and enterprise. The text establishes a sense of nostalgia for the town's past greatness, while introducing key players in its current state. Characters such as bankers and tobacconists provide insights into the town's stagnation, suggesting a "curse" or "spell" upon its prosperity, while the dialogue reveals conflicting attitudes towards industry and innovation. Aaron and Enoch, the central figures, harbor ambitions to resurrect the iron industry, but their differing views on business catalyze a rivalry steeped in the emotional undercurrents of friendship and ambition.
