About the Author
Eddy Joe Cotton has ridden the rails for close to a decade. A writer and artist in his late twenties, he is also the leader of a hobo jug band and vaudeville sideshow called the Yard Dogs Road Show, which travels the country but is based in San Francisco. This is his first book.
From the Hardcover edition.
From the Inside Flap
ray day in 1991, a kid named Eddy Joe Cotton left home with nothing but a warm jacket, some well-worn boots, and a few crumpled dollar bills. His father had just fired him, not for the first time, but for the last. He didn t see his father again for two years. But this is not the story of a runaway it is a tale of an unorthodox road to adulthood. By taking to the trains, Eddy Joe Cotton learned the difficulty of life lived on the margins, the fading importance of a once-celebrated American folk hero, and the ultimate meaning of freedom.
