You always have that one place where you can lose yourself in your imagination. For Margie, it was in her backyard. Margie enjoyed watching from her bedroom window hobos hopping aboard trains. As her grandfather used to be a conductor before he retired, he always had hobo stories that Margie enjoyed. When Margie was to experience what it was like to hop aboard trains like hobos did, she surely did have a blast. Imogene Petty’s Hobo’s Way will definitely bring out the child in you.

It is not easy being a hobo. The world seems to be against you. People often avoid and despise you. Even the weather conspires to make you miserable. Everyone and everything demands money which you don't have. Hobos are usually peaceful because anything else will draw the attention and perhaps the wrath of the Man. Being inconspicuous and keeping your head down may avoid this. And yet there is more to life than mere survival. There is a spirit that longs to not just survive but to live and be free. A Hobo's life is tough, but it need not always be a misery. In this game you are a hobo trying to live in a tough world. Will you overcome the obstacles in your way? Will you survive? Will you thrive?

Nels Anderson was a pioneer in the study of the homeless. In the early 1920s Anderson combined his own experience "on the bummery," with his keen sociological insight to give voice to a largely ignored underclass. He remains an extraordinary and underrated figure in the history of American sociology. On Hobos and Homelessness includes Anderson's rich and vibrant ethnographic work of a world of homeless men. He conducted his study on Madison street in Chicago, and we come to intimately know this portion of the 1920s hobo underworld—the harshness of vagrant life and the adventures of young hobos who come to the big city. This selection also includes Anderson's later work on the juvenile and the tramp, the unattached migrant, and the family. Like John Steinbeck's Depression-era observations, Anderson's writings express the memory of those who do not seem entitled to have memory, whose lives were expressed in temporary labor.

The term hobo is derived from the English term "hoe boy," which refered to the people who worked the gardens and estates of the wealthy. The "hoe boys" were the original migrant workers (sorry, I don´t have a reference that supports this statement but it sounds good). The reader needs to understand and appreciate the life, desires, and motivations of these unique individuals. The hobo is often maligned, misunderstood, and exploited. The term hobo is generally used interchangeably with bum or tramp. However, the difference between a hobo and a bum or tramp is significant. The hobo is hardworking, enterprising, talented, self-reliant, self-confident, and sensitive. It takes courage, strength, skill, imagination, daring, and endurance to live a hobo´s life. The true hobo is basically a laboring man - a man of many trades and many talents who wanders the country in search of work. He may clear right-of-way, cut logs, lay railroad track, harvest wheat, mine gold, herd cattle, shear sheep, work the oil fields, and move on. A hobo is a state of mind - a desire to explore beyond the horizon, to try another Job, and examine, live with, and watch people. The hobo learns from watching, doing, listening, and thinking. He has a lot time for thinking while working and traveling. It is truly an education that cannot be gained in a classroom. A hobo´s attention span is usually quite short. Once the job is mastered, he moves on to another challenge. Traveling is at the heart of hobo life, and trains provided the means for that travel. But, in reality, the hobo rides the train to get from one place to another. He may spend a couple of days getting to the apple orchards of Washington or the potato fields of Idaho where he works until the harvest is in; then on a train again to the next work site. The train is just a convenient means of transportation. I have spent more time hitchhiking cars, trucks, airplanes, and boats than I have riding the rails. I once hitchhiked 25,000 miles in one year over the highway and have hitchhiked even more miles by air and ship. Hobos often go to sea, as I did, perhaps to break the bounds of land. I vividly recall having a compelling desire to see beyond the horizon the first time I saw the Pacific Ocean. I have the same feelings when I gaze into space. I doubt that I will ever travel into space, but I have been involved in historic space launches, such as the Hubble Telescope, Galileo, Cassini, and the Space Station launches. I was working down range from Cape Canaveral for the first manned launch. That is as close as I will ever get to space. I feel privileged to have been involved in the space programs. This book is an account of the first forty years of my life, which follows a hobo´s philosophy.

Ever since track was first laid for the great locomotives, hobos have listened to the call of the rails, lured by the possibility of free transportation to another place-if they could make their way unnoticed and unharmed. They rode the rails for various reasons-to escape economic hardship, satisfy an urge for adventure, or simply to feed their wanderlust. Along the way, they developed their own culture. Mulligan Stew contains a variety of ingredients from the hobo culture: hobo life as it was lived at the turn of the twentieth century, women hobos, hobo heroes, hobo signs and symbols, contemporary hobos telling of their experiences, and hobo traditions from the National Hobo Convention in Britt, Iowa-an event that has opened a door into the hobo world every August for more than 100 years. The convention motto is "There's a Little Bit of Hobo in All of Us." Readers who are hobos at heart are invited to open this book and savor the stew. Praise for Mulligan Stew: No book I know has captured the varieties of hobo experience as well as Barbara Hacha's Mulligan Stew, and in a form that perfectly fits the phenomenon... -Luther the Jet, Hobo King 1995-96
