The most enduring version of the hobo that has come down from the so-called 'Golden Age of Tramping' (1890s to 1940s) is an American cultural icon, signifying freedom from restraint and rebellion to the established order while reinforcing conservative messages about American exceptionalism, individualism, race, and gender. Vagabonds, Tramps, and Hobos shows that this 'pioneer hobo' image is a misrepresentation by looking at works created by transient artists and thinkers, including travel literature, fiction, memoir, early feminist writing, poetry, sociology, political journalism, satire, and music. This book explores the diversity of meanings that accrue around 'the hobo' and 'the tramp'. It is the first analysis to frame transiency within a nineteenth-century literary tradition of the vagabond, a figure who attempts to travel without money. This book provide new ways for scholars to think about the activity and representation of US transiency.

When her plush and comfy life suddenly and unexpectedly fell apart, Brooke and her dog Cloud set out to defy the odds. She put on a knapsack and started walking. If this is a man's world as they say, living on the streets is no place for a young woman. She was able to navigate her way through challenges and obstacles, getting odd jobs along the way, and hopping freight trains as a main mode of transport, until one day she awoke in the Red Wood forest, looked around the make shift camp built upon mounds of dirty kid trash and hidden back into the trees, and realized she had become... a hobo... and would ultimately come to know exactly what it means to survive.

"In the glory days of hoboing, hundreds of thousands of Americans were lured by the wail of soot-belching locomotives pulling long lines of freight cars. They hit the tracks and beat their way across an America laced with railroad lines. Some road in boxcars, or crouched in cowcatchers, some in empty battery boxes beneath passenger cars, others clung precariously to the brake rods inches from stinging cinders. The ingenuity of the hobo was only exceeded by his courage and, in many cases, his desperation. Few hobo jungles remain. The men and women who sat around campfires, swapping yarns, sharing stew, drinking "red-eye"--the working stiffs gay cats, yeggs, gandy dancers, and prushins--are a vanishing species. But here, this fascinating, flamboyant chapter of American history lives on. Interviews, letters, songs, poetry, articles from hobo newspapers, IWW literature and autobiographical accounts evoke a colorful, often savage portrait of hobo life from the late 1800's to the Great Depression... of lonely days rolling across silent prairies... all the sights from the stem of West Madison Street in Chicago to the berry fields of California... the spectacle of mangled comrades fallen from trains... countless jobs, some good, many bad... times in jail and on chain gangs... shivering nights on flophouse floors... bloody brawls and hostile towns... of excitement, adventure and freedom. Scoopshovel Scotty, Chicken Red Donovan, Mountain Dew, Boxcar Bertha, Steam Train Maury Graham and many others sing their songs and tell their tales. Iconoclasts all, they defied traditional values, bent on staking their own claim to the American ideal of rugged individualism. Hardships and humiliations were commonplace, but the overwhelming desire to wander freely, to be hard travellin' drifters kept them always on the move. Drawing on personal interviews with veteran hoboes and previously untapped sources, including the John J. McCook collection and a recently unearthed cache of material in the National Archives, Roger Bruns captures the vagabond spirit of these knights of the road and of "them days gone forever." -- Jacket flaps

Reefer Charlie Fox rode the rails from 1928 to 1939; from 1939 to 1965 he hitched rides in automobiles and traveled by foot. From Indiana to British Columbia, from Arkansas to Texas, from Utah to Mexico, he was part of the grand hobo tradition that has all but passed away from American life. He camped in hobo jungles, slept under bridges and in sand houses at railroad yards, ate rattlesnake meat, fresh California grapes, and fish speared by the Indians of the Northwest. He quickly learned both the beauty and the dangers of his chosen way of life. One lesson learned early on was that there are distinct differences among hoboes, tramps, and bums. As the all-time king of hoboes, Jeff Davis, used to say, Hoboes will work, tramps won't, and bums can't. "Tales of an American Hobo" is a lasting legacy to conventional society, teaching about a bygone era of American history and a rare breed of humanity who chose to live by the rails and on the road.

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
