The Hammers
In this chapter titled The Hammers, the opening scene offers a quiet juxtaposition—an English estate slowly overtaken by time, where roses bloom beside crumbling walls and silence speaks louder than memory. The stillness is not merely rural peace but a kind of hush before the resurgence of national effort. Soon, that quiet is broken by rhythmic pounding—metal on metal, the sound of labor shaping destiny. In Frindsbury, 1786, the shipyards stir with the energy of creation as hammers rise and fall in…-
