Stories of work in all its guises: bridge-builders wrestling a living river, a new-built ship discovering its soul at sea, a polo pony squadron charging as one mind, famine fighters and frontier engineers holding chaos at bay. Grit, camaraderie, and the talk of beasts and engines reveal how craft, duty, and imagination turn labor into glory—and sometimes, unexpected mercy.
