Ran Away From Home: A Life Of Adventure is a memoir written by William Stephens Hayward and originally published in 1875. The book follows the author's journey from his childhood in England to his travels around the world in search of adventure. Hayward begins the book by describing his unhappy childhood and his decision to run away from home at the age of 16. He then travels to various parts of the world, including Australia, New Zealand, and the United States, where he takes on a variety of jobs, from gold mining to cattle ranching. Throughout the book, Hayward encounters a range of colorful characters, including cowboys, gamblers, and outlaws. He also experiences a number of dangerous situations, such as being attacked by wild animals and nearly drowning in a river. Despite the challenges he faces, Hayward remains determined to live a life of adventure and excitement. He eventually returns to England, where he settles down and reflects on his experiences. Ran Away From Home: A Life Of Adventure provides a fascinating glimpse into the life of a 19th-century adventurer and is sure to captivate readers with its tales of danger and excitement.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
