From “Hoboes: Wandering in America, 1870-1940.” A subject I‘m most fascinated with. #booksbrewsandbooze #hoboes #hoboeswanderinginamerica #theleatherman (although I‘m just starting to read this so I don‘t know if The Leatherman will make an appearance, but I hope so)
The Leatherman is a fascinating true story of a man who wandered a 365-mile loop through several states in the 1800s. I love that the book talks about how society treats eccentrics and also how all proceeds go to CT youth education programs, “so that we might not miss or deride eccentrics in their early years.” (Picture from Connecticut Magazine) #connecticut #booksbrewsandbooze #theleatherman
