Description or summary of the audiobook: From his decision to leave school at fifteen to roam the world, to his recollections of life as a hobo on the Southern Pacific Railroad, as a cattle skinner in Texas, as a merchant seaman in Singapore and the West Indies, and as an itinerant bare-knuckled prizefighter across small-town America, here is Louis L'Amour's memoir of his lifelong love affair with learning-from books, from yondering, and from some remarkable men and women-that shaped him as a storyteller and as a man. Like classic L'Amour fiction, 'Education of a Wandering Man' mixes authentic frontier drama-such as the author's desperate efforts to survive a sudden two-day trek across the blazing Mojave desert-with true-life characters like Shanghai waterfront toughs, desert prospectors, and cowboys whom Louis L'Amour met while traveling the globe. At last, in his own words, this is a story of a one-of-a-kind life lived to the fullest . . . a life that inspired the books that will forever enable us to relive our glorious frontier heritage.
