Description
A Memoir of Survival and Redemption In 1987, Peter Kaldheim fled New York, pursued by debt and danger. He left behind his chaotic past and embarked on a journey across America, living hand-to-mouth in flophouses and pan-handling with fellow itinerants. As he navigated the harsh realities of vagrancy, Kaldheim was forced to confront his troubled history, from his time in prison to lost relationships. This memoir is a testament to Kaldheim's resilience and determination as he hiked and busied his way through an America rarely seen. Along the way, he encountered a diverse cast of characters who instilled in him new empathy and wisdom. Through his journey, Kaldheim emerged with a deeper understanding of himself and the world around him. Hardcover, 352 pages.
