Bookmobile in Eugene, Oregon
The man who tells me not to go looking for the latest map of where the trains
stop to change crews – because I’d be putting into jeopardy the well-being and
whereabouts of fugitives who need to hop trains to survive – tells me he’s
written a book about his own travels. In the book, he describes how he stalked
and caught a wild boar and roasted it over a fire. He includes a diagram that
illustrates how to cut up a boar once you’ve killed one, and where to insert
your stabbing stick: between the front leg and the upper rib, aiming for the
heart.
