Hobo Stories (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781935031147)

A complete five-story series set in the backroads, railyards, and seedy hobo jungles of America where tramps traveled and congregated; a grand saga of life in a strange, often violent underworld. Includes the initial story from the SATURDAY EVENING POST (1914), and the remainder from the pulp magazine, ADVENTURE (1916-21). The authors were two brothers from San Francisco who started selling regularly to the pulps as teenagers. Included is a biography of the amazing Caseys, an examination of the roots of their hobo fiction, and, from the pulp ROMANCE (1920), their revelatory short story about the adventures of a teenage pulp writer.
