The Road Between Heaven and Hell (part 1)

Made in 1984 this short documentary tells the story of the
legendary 19th century wanderer, the Leatherman. His circular route brought
him through towns in New York and Connecticut on a very regular schedule. A
new book about the Leatherman, with new information, will be published
shortly by Wesleyan University press.

Thanks for uploading. I live in Ossining, where the Leatherman is supposedly buried. We grew up hearing about him, so it's nice to see this information about him. He's got a new stone now, and people still leave pennies on it. :)
