Vagabonds, Tramps, and Hobos: The Literature and Culture of U.S. Transiency 1890–1940 - Cambridge Studies in American Literature and Culture
Clayton, Owen (University of Lincoln)
This book frames transiency within a nineteenth-century literary tradition of the vagabond, a figure who attempts to travel without money. It explores the diversity of meanings that accrue around 'the hobo' and 'the tramp'. It provides new ways for scholars to think about the activity and representation of US transiency.
