A little-known early 20th-century travel writer, remembered for a lively collection of sketches gathered in A Tramp's Scraps. The book offers brief, observant glimpses of life on the road and the places that caught the author's eye.

by H. I. M. Self
Very little reliable biographical information could be confirmed about this author from the sources available during this search. What can be confirmed is that H. I. M. Self is credited as the author of A Tramp's Scraps, a work published in the early 1900s and now preserved by Project Gutenberg and library catalogs.
The writing is presented as a series of travel pieces and informal observations, with a wandering, firsthand feel that suggests a taste for movement, place, and everyday detail. Because solid reference material on the author's life appears to be scarce, the work itself remains the clearest introduction to the voice behind the name.
