"Lavengro: the Scholar - the Gypsy - the Priest" by George Borrow is a work published in 1851 that blends memoir and novel. Following a protagonist named George from his childhood in military barrack towns through England, Scotland, and Ireland, the story traces his journey from lawyer's apprentice to London hack writer to wandering tinker.
