Encyclopedia > American Steamer

The American Steamer was an American steam car manufactured by the American Steam Truck Co. of Elgin, Illinois from 1922 to 1924. Typical of the glut of steam cars that tried to get on the market in the early 1920s, the car featured a twin-cylinder compound double-acting motor. The company offered a touring car, a roadster, a coupe, and a sedan. At least 16 cars are known to have been built, though it is possible that as many as 20 actually left the factory.

The American Civil War (1861–1865) was a sectional conflict in the United States between the Federal government ("Union") and 11 southern slave states that declared their secession and formed the Confederate States of America, led by President Jefferson Davis.
The immediate causes of secession and war were the issue of slavery in the territories and the election of Abraham Lincoln, which signaled the end of Southern control over the federal government.
Americans with Confederate ancestors cherish the memory of their bravery and determination, yet their cause is also tied to the history of African American slavery.
