Zone Policeman 88: A Close Range Study of the Panama Canal and Its Workers

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.
