Hobohemia

Frank O Beck. A long-time Towertowners’s vivid reminiscences of this colorful, dynamic, creative and radical community that flourished for a generation despite constant onslaughts from the Red Squad,  Vice Squad, bourgeois journalists, fundamentalists, and other bigots.  Originally published in 1956, Hobohemia has long been out of print and hard to find.  This new edition is long overdue, for the book is still one of the best first-hand accounts of a unique place and time.
