Landlopers by John Le Gay Brereton is the story of a group of drifters in Britain and the wild and humbling record of their travels. Excerpt: "I cannot offer you cakes and ale, But campfire bread and a billy of tea A loafer's dream and a swagman's tale. I cannot offer you cakes and ale, But a johnny-cake and some post-and-rail I trust you'll share by the track with me. I cannot offer you cakes and ale, Butcampfire bread and a billy of tea!"
