Jim Tully left his hometown of St. Marys, Ohio, in 1901, spending most of his teenage years in the company of hoboes. Drifting across the country, he spent those years scrambling into boxcars, avoiding railroad cops, and begging meals from back doors. Tully crafted these memories into an astonishing chronicle of the American underclass, especially in Beggars of Life.
