About this title

Synopsis

Originally published in 1913, during the construction of the Panama Canal, Harry A. Franck tells the story of his service as a police officer in the Canal Zone. Franck was a well-known travel writer in the first half of the twentieth century. He missed none of the color and humor and adventures of his experiences; and his book is a faithful and fascinating picture of all he saw and heard and enjoyed - enjoyed to the full and makes his reader enjoy. There are many photographs of the canal construction and other scenes taken by the author.
