Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from A Tramp Across the Continent I would have this unpretentious book taken only for what it is - the wayside notes of a happy vagabondizing. It was written in hurried moments by the coal-oil lamps of country hotels, the tallow dips of section-house or ranch, the smoky pine-knots of the cowboy´s or the hunter´s cabin, the crackling fogon of a Mexican adobe, or the snapping greasewood of my lonely campfire upon the plains; and from that vagrant body and spirit I have not tried to over-civilize it. A prim chronicle of such a trip would be no chronicle at all. Nor have I desired to make it either an atlas or an encyclopædia of the country. Economic and geographic essays do not belong within its scope. It is merely a truthful record of some of the experiences and impressions of a walk across the continent - the diary of a man who got outside the fences of civilization and was glad of it. It is the simple story of joy on legs. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
