This is a book for anyone who has ever lain awake and heard the whistle of a train calling through the night and wanted to be out there, rambling, having adventures. Here are the life stories of authentic old-time hobos: Steamtrain Maury, Alabama, Tumbleweed, Reefer Charlie, Little Hobo, Cardboard, Greenie, Gas Can Paddy, Ramblin' Rudy, the Sidedoor Pullman Kid, Hobo Bob, Fry Pan Jack, and Gypsy Moon herself.
