The book is a memoir that describes the author's personal journey, from his arrival on the Isthmus as a young man to his eventual departure after several years of service.Throughout the book, Fabens provides vivid descriptions of the people, places, and events that shaped his time on the Canal Zone. He writes about the challenges of working in a harsh and unforgiving environment, including the dangers of disease, the difficult living conditions, and the constant threat of accidents.Despite these challenges, Fabens also writes about the camaraderie and sense of community that developed among the workers on the Canal Zone. He describes the friendships he formed with his fellow workers, as well as the support and encouragement they provided to one another during difficult times.Overall, A Story of Life on the Isthmus is a fascinating and engaging account of a unique period in history. It offers a rare glimpse into the experiences of those who worked on the Panama Canal, and provides valuable insights into the challenges and triumphs of life on the Isthmus during the early 1900s.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
