"Working My Way Around the World" by Harry Alverson Franck and Lena M. Franck is an early 20th-century travel story about Harry Franck's global escapade using his budget and resourcefulness to experience different cultures. After his education, Franck wants an immersive educational experience so he embarks on a year-long journey, beginning with working on a cattle boat to cross the Atlantic. With limited funds, but a thirst for knowledge, Franck prepares for his expedition, learning languages and cultures through direct engagement. His transatlantic voyage involves handling cattle, navigating chaotic environments, and arriving in Glasgow, where his European quest starts.
