    A Vagabond's Breakfast by Richard Gwyn

    Posted by jacksonthemove 16 September 2011

    This is a fantastic memoir about a man looking back on his eventful life down and out traveling homeless through Greece, and other parts of Europe, while coming to terms with his present situation, a life threatening battle brought about by his past. Brilliantly written, engaging and informative. Can't recommend this book enough.
