Homeless in America

by Philip F Kearney

Overview

This is the story of a homeless man and his ordeals. It was experienced, documented and then written by Phil. Phil was once an Electronic Engineer and then a Lawyer. Due to a horrendous state of bad luck and some bad choices, Phil became homeless. He traveled extensively in the eastern part of the USA while he was homeless and tried to cope with life as best as he could. Phil is quite familiar with the homeless "culture" - up close. He documented much of his experience as a homeless man in a journal which served as the basis for this book. This book is written in his own words. Sure, you have seem them on the streets -the homeless folks. But what do you know about them? How did they become so unfortunate? Why can't they do something about it? What's their life like? Where do they sleep, eat and how do they keep warm? None of us knows, except the homeless. Nearly nothing is known about them because so few have ever recovered from that experience and written a book from THEIR point of view. You may find this book somewhat disturbing, but I guarantee you will find interesting and informative.
