Summary: "From Job to Job around the World" by Alfred C. B. Fletcher is a travel narrative written in the early 20th century. The book recounts the author's adventurous three-year journey around the globe, starting from San Francisco, where he embarked with a mere five dollars and worked odd jobs to support his travels. Along the way, Fletcher explores various countries and cultures, documenting his experiences and the people he meets. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Fletcher's chance meeting with his travel companion, Richardson, aboard a ship to Honolulu. Both men are embarking on a similar adventure after their original partners bailed on them at the last minute. They decide to explore the world together, adopting a carefree attitude and a modest lifestyle as they navigate through different countries and take up various jobs, including teaching in Hawaiian schools. The opening chapters set the stage for a journey filled with hardship and camaraderie, highlighting their determination to see the world while making a living along the way.
