A Day with a Tramp, and Other Days is a captivating collection of essays by Walter A. Wyckoff, chronicling his unique experiences as he traverses the United States at the close of the nineteenth century. The book offers a vivid, firsthand account of life among the working class and the marginalized, as Wyckoff, a sociologist, embarks on a journey to better understand the realities faced by tramps, laborers, and everyday Americans.

Each essay in the collection is a window into a different facet of American society, revealing the struggles, aspirations, and humanity of individuals often overlooked by mainstream narratives.

Wyckoff's journey, marked by curiosity and compassion, invites readers to reconsider their perceptions of society's outcasts and to appreciate the dignity and resilience found in unexpected places. This book remains a valuable historical document and a moving literary work, offering insight into the complexities of American life at the turn of the century.
