Drawing from personal letters, diaries, and memoirs, Timothy B. Spears examines the lives of the itinerant workers who defined the American landscape between 1880 and 1980. This study explores the distinct social identity of traveling salesmen, hoboes, and migrant laborers, revealing how their transient existence shaped the national character and challenged traditional notions of home and community.
