Description

This 1926 first edition chronicles the life of Jack Black, a professional safecracker and itinerant traveler navigating the criminal underworld of turn-of-the-century America. Originally serialized in the San Francisco Call-Bulletin, the narrative provides a gritty, firsthand account of hobo culture, freight-hopping, and the harsh realities of the early twentieth-century penal system.
