Flynt, Josiah; Josiah Flynt Willard : The Little Brother: A Story of Tramp Life

Gregg Press, Upper Saddle River, NJ, 1968

A clean, unmarked book with a tight binding. Full green cloth boards. 254 pages. "The Little Brother is the story of a runaway boy who takes up with tramps. They use him for various rackets, and he learns the ways of the road from them. There are vivid pictures of the prison as a school for crime rather than a place of reform. The story is not as 'tough' as one would expect from its subject, and there are occasional lapses into sentimentality. It is a valuable work because it is the first to explore a stratum of Amercian society which few writers cared to acknowledge existed, much less use as a subject for their art." [introduction]. Fiction. Book Condition: Fine. Binding: Hard Cover. Jacket: No Jacket
