About the book

A bestseller in 1924, this vivid piece of outlaw history has inexplicably faded from the public's consciousness. Jim Tully takes us through freight trains, hobo jungles and brothels while avoiding railroad cops and wardens of order. Beggars of Life was the first in Tully's five volume memoir, recalling his transformation from kid novelist via journalist, Hollywood columnist, chain maker, boxer, circus handyman, tree surgeon and publicist for one Charlie Chaplin!
