Book excerpt: Excerpt from Among French Folk: A Book for Vagabonds Spring is surely the most abused of seasons, for to it are attributed, directly or indirectly, countless lapses from commonsense. I am instructed by Helen - a wife whose advice is often worth following - to blame the season for the notes which follow. Personally I would blame the employers who, just at that time, took it into their heads to dispense with my services. Had it not been for them I should have spent the summer respectably employed in filling the columns of a daily newspaper. But no. Helen remains adamant on the Spring theory. She is romantic. Her only sorrow, I believe, is that she is not her namesake of Troy, whose beauty inspired poets and embroiled nations. That would have been so exciting. She found it exciting even to be out of a job. She looked up with dancing eyes. "We'll wander through France," she enthused. "Just a pack on our backs and a Springtime smile for everyone we see." I have yet to meet the person who will stand out against Helen. She listens to no reasoning: did not on this occasion. It was the Spring, she repeated, the season of the Bohemian, the Wanderlust. The Fates favoured her plan. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Vagabonds in Perigord It was at eleven o'clock on Sunday, the fifteenth of June, that we left Tulle, carrying our luxuries upon our backs, and with our faces set south-east towards the upper gorges of the Dordogne. It was a day, even at that hour, of fervent heat. Our knapsacks were as yet unfamiliar to our shoulders. We were three hundred miles south of Paris, and but two days out of England. The way, for the present, at any rate, was almost totally free from shade, and the lofty hills on either side, crowned with forests as they were, only sufficed by contrast to emphasize its glare. But we had cast loose. We were en route. We were free. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Vagrants and Vagabonds written by Kristin O'Brassill-Kulfan and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2019-01-08 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The riveting story of control over the mobility of poor migrants, and how their movements shaped current perceptions of class and status in the United States Vagrants. Vagabonds. Hoboes. Identified by myriad names, the homeless and geographically mobile have been with us since the earliest periods of recorded history. In the early days of the United States, these poor migrants – consisting of everyone from work-seekers to runaway slaves – populated the roads and streets of major cities and towns. These individuals were a part of a social class whose geographical movements broke settlement laws, penal codes, and welfare policies. This book documents their travels and experiences across the Atlantic world, excavating their life stories from the records of criminal justice systems and relief organizations. Vagrants and Vagabonds examines the subsistence activities of the mobile poor, from migration to wage labor to petty theft, and how local and state municipal authorities criminalized these activities, prompting extensive punishment. Kristin O’Brassill-Kulfan examines the intertwined legal constructions, experiences, and responses to these so-called “vagrants,” arguing that we can glean important insights about poverty and class in this period by paying careful attention to mobility. This book charts why and how the itinerant poor were subject to imprisonment and forced migration, and considers the relationship between race and the right to movement and residence in the antebellum US. Ultimately, Vagrants and Vagabonds argues that poor migrants, the laws designed to curtail their movements, and the people charged with managing them, were central to shaping everything from the role of the state to contemporary conceptions of community to class and labor status, the spread of disease, and punishment in the early American republic.

Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - - As I started out from the farm with a basket of potatoes, for our supper in the shack half a mile up the hillside, where we had made our Summer camp, my eye fell on a notice affixed to a gate-post, and, as I read it, my heart sank - sank as the sun was sinking yonder with wistful glory behind the purple ridge. I tore the paper from the gate-post and put it in my pocket with a sigh. "It is true, then," I said to myself. "We have got to admit it. I must show this to Colin." Then I continued my way across the empty, close-gleaned corn-field, across the railway track, and, plunging into the orchard on the other side, where here and there among the trees the torrents of apples were being already caught in boxes by the thrifty husbandman, began to breast the hill intersected with thickly wooded watercourses.

To the South Mou sewald - the pastorate of Rev. Henry Duncan, the founder of Savings' Banks; Torthorwald with its old castle, yet hugely lowering over much of the dale, and mementoes of the brave Kirkpatrick. Northward an ancient and renowned city lovingly dubbed the Queen of the South - the site of a' famous cattle-market - whose streets had echoed the tread of a Bruce, a Sc )tt, or a Douglas, and latched the magical tones of a Burns, Aird, or Carlyle. It was said by the biographer of Burns that his Speech was so taking the hostlers and domestics at inns where he stopped late would rise out of bed and gather round him to listen to his accents.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was in fat Madame Fontaine's little café at Bar la Rose, that Norman village by the sea, that I announced my decision. It being market-day the café was noisy with peasants, and the crooked street without jammed with carts. Monsieur Torin, the butcher, opposite me, leaned back heavily from his glass of applejack and roared. Monsieur Pompanet, the blacksmith, at my elbow, put down his cup of black coffee delicately in its clean saucer and opened his honest gray eyes wide in amazement. Simultaneously Monsieur Jaclin, the mayor, in his freshly ironed blouse, who for want of room was squeezed next to Torin, choked out a wheezy "Bon Dieu!" and blew his nose in derision. "Pont du Sable-Bon Dieu!" exclaimed all three. "Pont du Sable-Bon Dieu!"
Download or read book Mongrels Bastards Orphans and Vagabonds written by Gregory Rodriguez and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2008-10-14 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unprecedented account of the long-term cultural and political influences that Mexican-Americans will have on the collective character of our nation.In considering the largest immigrant group in American history, Gregory Rodriguez examines the complexities of its heritage and of the racial and cultural synthesis--mestizaje--that has defined the Mexican people since the Spanish conquest in the sixteenth century. He persuasively argues that the rapidly expanding Mexican American integration into the mainstream is changing not only how Americans think about race but also how we envision our nation. Brilliantly reasoned, highly thought provoking, and as historically sound as it is anecdotally rich, Mongrels, Bastards, Orphans, and Vagabonds is a major contribution to the discussion of the cultural and political future of the United States.
