Publisher's Synopsis
The Autobiography Of A Tramp is a memoir written by J. H. Crawford and first published in 1900. The book is a personal account of the author's experiences as a tramp, or a homeless wanderer, during the late 19th century. Crawford's story begins with his childhood in a poor family in Scotland, and follows his journey as he becomes a young man and sets out on the road. He describes the challenges and dangers of life as a tramp, including hunger, cold, and violence. Crawford also reflects on the social and economic factors that led him and others to become tramps, and offers insights into the lives and perspectives of his fellow wanderers. The Autobiography Of A Tramp provides a unique and vivid portrait of a marginalized community in turn-of-the-century America, and sheds light on the complex social and economic issues of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
