Paperback or Softback. Condizione: New. My Name is Frank: A merchant seaman talks. Book.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Frank Laskier was born 1912 and lived his early years in the suburbs of Liverpool. As a teenager, Frank was an avid reader of Conrad and Masefield and had a romantic view of the "call of the sea".

'The publisher of this new edition has included an introduction and explanatory footnotes, as well as an appendix listing the ships mentioned in the book along with their descriptions.…
