Hitchhiking through Europe: During the Summer of 1956

Recorded firsthand as a diary, this personal account gives the story of Joseph Hahn hitchhiking through parts of Europe in 1956. As a twenty-one-year-old college student, he was able to achieve his goal of touring Europe before receiving his orders from the U.S. Army. Spending only 160 dollars on his European travels, Joseph not only saw some of the most beautiful scenic sites in Western Europe, but also found many friends in his travels through the cities and countryside of England, Scotland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, and France. This is his hitchhiking account of Europe.
