Description
The Tramp's Handbook, written by Harry Roberts and originally published in 1903, is a comprehensive guidebook for anyone interested in the lifestyle of tramping or vagabonding. The book covers a wide range of topics that are relevant to tramps, such as the history of tramping, the different types of tramps, the tools and equipment needed for tramping, and the best ways to find food, shelter, and work while on the road.The Tramp's Handbook is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a different aspect of tramp life. The first section provides a brief history of tramping, tracing its roots back to the ancient Greeks and Romans and discussing how it evolved over time. The second section describes the different types of tramps, including hobos, bums, and drifters, and explains the unique characteristics of each.The third section of the book is devoted to the tools and equipment needed for tramping, such as backpacks, bedrolls, and cooking gear. It also includes advice on how to make these items yourself, using materials that can be found or scavenged along the way.The fourth section of the book covers the practical aspects of tramping, such as finding food and shelter, staying safe on the road, and dealing with law enforcement and other authorities. It also includes tips on how to find work while tramping, either through odd jobs or more long-term employment.Throughout the book, Roberts emphasizes the importance of self-reliance and resourcefulness, encouraging tramps to be creative and adaptable in their approach to life on the road.
