Hoboes Bindlestiffs, Fruit Tramps, and the Harvesting of the West【電子書籍】[ Mark Wyman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>When the railroad stretched its steel rails across the American West in the 1870s, it opened up a vast expanse of territory with very few people but enormous agricultural potential: a second Western frontier, the garden West. Agriculture quickly followed the railroads, making way for Kansas wheat and Colorado sugar beets and Washington apples. With this new agriculture came an unavoidable need for harvest workersーfor hands to pick the apples, cotton, oranges, and hops; to pull and top the sugar beets; to fill the trays with raisin grapes and apricots; to stack the wheat bundles in shocks to be pitched into the maw of the threshing machine. These were not the year-round hired hands but transients who would show up to harvest the crop and then leave when the work was finished.</p> <p>Variously called bindlestiffs, fruit tramps, hoboes, and bums, these menーand women and childrenーwere vital to the creation of the West and its economy. Amazingly, it is an aspect of Western history that has never been told. In <em>Hoboes: Bindlestiffs, Fruit Tramps, and the Harvesting of the West</em>, the award-winning historian Mark Wyman beautifully captures the lives of these workers. Exhaustively researched and highly original, this narrative history is a detailed, deeply sympathetic portrait of the lives of these hoboes, as well as a fresh look at the settling and development of the American West.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,089円

Heavenly Hoboes【電子書籍】[ Bob Brewer ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The alleyway behind Guthrie's mercantile store and Fast Eddie's motorcycle shop is probably the last place you would ever expect to see the Light of the Lord. But that's where Abraham and Shorty, two hard-drinking hoboes, come face to face with it during one of their celebrations of life. The unsettling event happens shortly after they find themselves drawn to the small town of Midvale in the bible belt of the Midwest. The party is well under way at the time of the appearance. The two men have a couple of bottles of wine happily warming their innards and blurring their minds when the great light with a rumbling voice blossoms through the brick wall and tells them how displeased it is with their actions.<br /> "Cleanse yourselves," it orders then promptly melts back into the wall leaving the newly acquainted buddies alone and bewildered and trying hard to figure out why the Lord would be singling them out.</p> <p>The light is the method that Host, God's right hand man, chooses to set up the miracle he has been put in charge of introducing to the world. Abraham and Shorty are the two earthly emissaries God assigns to help Host complete the task. But in the beginning stages, Abe and Shorty are literally in the dark. They don't know anything about the plan. All they know is that a tremendous light, which they suspect is God, has told them to get themselves cleaned up. They take that to mean a shower and a change of clothes which they get busy on taking care of right away.<br /> They are back in the Lord's alley a few nights later, sober, bathed and sporting a new set of clothes from the Salvation Army store. They are feeling good about themselves and ready to show God how well they have followed his orders.<br /> "Do ya think we ought to tell Him we're ready?" Shorty whispers as they sit in the dark alley waiting for the Lord to smile down on them.<br /> "Maybe we should, seeing as how we didn't have an appointment and all," Abe answers.<br /> "How do you think we ought to do it?"<br /> "I guess we just call out."<br /> "That ought to work," the little Irishman agrees.<br /> Having decided on the approach, in unison, they make the call, "Oh, Lord, we're here."<br /> When that doesn't bring the Light of the Lord, they raise their voices and yell it out again, "We're here, Lord!"<br /> The light flashes on after a moment or two but it's not the Lord's light, it's the twin beams of the local law's flashlights that come racing down the alley. Within minutes, the two godforsaken vagrants are being hauled off to spend the rest of the night in jail.</p> <p>And that is just the beginning of the troubles our two newly appointed apostles have in store for them as Host goes about finalizing the arrangements and getting the miracle up and running. The little town of Midvale, and the world for that matter, will never be the same.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 801円

Origin of the Hippies - Wandering Groups and Modernization - Gypsies, Bandits, Hoboes and Bohemians【電子書籍】[ Dr. David Shapiro ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The destruction of tribal and traditional western life by modernization spawned groups separated from society. These groups often mobile and reaching into many nations re-emerged in history. They have influenced change in the world and in turn have been affected by the cultures of the world. Gypsies, Bandits, Revolutionaries, Hoboes, Bohemians, Beats and Hippies are subjects of the studies recent and historical forerunners. This study analyzes the cause of these groups rooted in levels of energy consumption, changes in modes of production and modernization that create fertile ground for social change. It reveals links in the chain of changes in society and its institutions that give rise to new emerging groups and beliefs. A 34 nation comparative study was undertaken in 1968. This was a critical year for the evolution of the Hippie Movement and its gradual incorporation into the general culture.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 350円

The Mother of the Hoboes And Other Stories【電子書籍】[ A-No. 1 The Famous Tramp ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
Self-published in 1918, The Mother of the Hoboes is an extremely rare book about the life of train vagabonds culled from the personal experiences of A-No. 1, "the famous tramp." This is a dazzling and wild window into an underground culture that has largely vanished -- although some of the adventures may feel familiar to contemporary train hoppers, squatters and zinesters. Includes many illustrations. Warning to Those Who Read this Book: the Author, who Has Led for Over a Quarter of a Century the Pitiful and Dangerous Life of a Tramp, gives this Well-Meant Advice: DO NOT Jump on Moving Trains or Street Cars, even if only to ride to the next street crossing, because this might arouse the “Wanderlust,” besides endangering needlessly your life and limbs. Wandering, once it becomes a habit, is almost incurable, so NEVER RUN AWAY, but STAY AT HOME, as a roving lad usually ends in becoming a confirmed tramp.画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 132円

Westward Hoboes【電子書籍】[ Winifred Hawkridge Dixon ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>TOBY’S real name is Katharine. Her grandmother was a poet, her father is a scientist, and she is an artist. She is called Toby for Uncle Jonas’ dog, who had the habit, on being kicked out of the door, of running down the steps with a cheerful bark and a wagging tail, as if he had left entirely of his own accord. There is no fact, however circumstantially incriminating, which this young doctrinaire cannot turn into the most potent justification for what she has done or wishes to do, and when she gets to the tail wagging stage, regardless of how recently the bang of the front door has echoed in our ears, she wags with the charm of the artist, the logical precision of the scientist, and the ardor of the poet. Even when she ran the car into the creek at NambeーーAt the outset we did not plan to make the journey by automobile. Our destination was uncertain. We planned to drift, to sketch and write when the spirit moved. But drifting by railroad in the West implies time-tables, crowded trains, boudoir-capped matrons, crying babies and the smell of bananas, long waits and anxiety over reservations. Traveling by auto seemed luxurious in comparison and would save railroad fares, annoyance and time. We pictured ourselves bowling smoothly along in the open air, in contrast with the stifling train; we previsioned no delays, no breakdowns, no dangers; we saw New Mexico and Arizona a motorist’s Heaven, paved with asphalt and running streams of gasoline. An optimist is always like that, and two are twenty times so. I was half-owner of a Cadillac Eight, with a rakish hood and a matronly tonneau; its front was intimidating, its rear reassuring. The owner of the other half was safely in France. At the time, which half belonged to which had not been discussed. It is now a burning question. I figure that the springs, the dust-pan, the paint, mud-guards and tires constituted her share, with a few bushings and nuts thrown in for good measure, but having acquired a mercenary disposition in France, she differs from me. What I knew of the bowels of a car had been gained, not from systematic research, but bitter experience with mutinous parts, in ten years’ progress through two, four, six and finally eight-cylinder motors of widely varying temperaments. I had taken no course in mechanics, and had, and still have, a way of confusing the differential with the transmission. But I love to tinker! In the old two-cylinder days, when the carburetor flooded I would weigh it down with a few pebbles and a hairpin, and when the feed became too scanty, I would take the hairpin out and leave the pebbles in. I had a smattering knowledge of all the deviltry defective batteries, leaky radiators, frozen steering-wheels, cranky generators, wrongly-hung springs, stripped gears and slipping clutches can perpetrate, but those parts which commonly behaved themselves I left severely alone. Toby could not drive, but a few lessons made her an apt pupil. She paid her money to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts for a license, and one sparkling evening in early February we started for Springfield. We were to cover thirteen thousand miles before we saw Boston again,ーeleven thousand by motor and the rest by steamship and horseback.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 640円
