Book Review: |
|
Errol Flynn's movie making interupted his time on Zaca. Captain Cother employed as Master of the yacht, and in charge of repairs etc. Ms. Flynn's consistent interference caused chaos in the financial smooth running of the yacht. This journal can be read through the many letters, telling a story of frustration and hard work for Captain Cother. Or one can read the chapter introductions and therefore miss out on the seasoned details. Either way the journal is read, it shows a very interesting lifestyle.
