Trials and Tribulations of a Fifteen-Year-Old Runaway, a new book by Mr. Mibs/Foxy, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

Trials and Tribulations of a Fifteen-Year-Old Runaway is a compelling and descriptive autobiography of Milburn Fountain's adventures as a young man. For several summers as a teenager in the early 1930s, the author traveled the eastern United States-working, hitchhiking and hunting snakes from New York to Florida. His experiences offer the reader a glimpse of the culture and customs of the time, the "transient camps" in which he spent some weeks, and the kindness and troubles he encountered along the way. At 18, after enlisting in the United States Army, Mr. Fountain embarked on yet another adventure, and his detailed rendering of these times presents an engaging portrait.
