Sometime in May I stopped into a local bookstore to see what was collecting dust on their shelves, and I found a book titled "Rolling Nowhere - Riding the Rails with American's Hoboes" by an author named Ted Conover. This is one of those travelogues written by a younger man with questions about what it might be like to take a trip through the U.S. on a freight train. Hardly a "Depression Era" book (the first year mentioned on the copyright page is 1981), but at least it seems to be describing the adventure in the words of a young man discovering the good and bad about riding a freight train St. Louis, Missouri to...well, I haven't come close to finishing the book yet, so...
