DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Cowboys and Englishmen...do they mix? One Englishman set out to discover for himself what the western life was like in the 1880s. From Texas to British Columbia, Morley Roberts' character tramped around with hardly a dollar in his pocket, taking work where he could find it, riding the rails, and observing American ways. An English novelist and short-story writer, Roberts, was fond of the tramping style of travel. This immensely entertaining and funny account of his tramp around the "western avernus" (Morley's take on western pronunciation) of America is one of jewels of his body of writing. Well-known for his fiction writing, Morley spend three years tramping around Australia and America in the late 19th century and came home to write this book. His view of America and Americans is not only funny but a wonderful view into a world now gone. Be sure to LOOK INSIDE or download a sample.

So outward civilisation was gone, and it was with strange feelings of delight that I came into a new country to commence a new career, although I knew that there would inevitably be much labour and perhaps much suffering for me.
