Dead Mans Clothes: The Bum Camp of Tolt Washington
Dead Man's Clothes is a collection of anecdotes from author Dale Davidson about growing up next to railroad tracks and the State of Washington Convalescent Home, known to the locals as "the bum camp". Written in a down-home, conversational style, the book openly depicts the rough and tumble life experienced by so-called "winos" and other less fortunate members of society.

READ THIS BOOK!!!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This book is a heartwarming view into rural life in the North West. It is often hillarious and sometimes a little sad. In a time of so many "woe is me" autobiographies it is refreshing to read stories from ones life that is not asking for your pity. This book is truly a gem and I am glad that I stumbled across this book. So do yourself a favor and get it, you won't be disappointed.
