TEACHER MAN by Frank McCourt

 With the wit, charm and poignancy that made Angela's Ashes and 'Tis so universally beloved, Frank McCourt tells his most exhilarating story yet - how he first became a teacher and then a writer.

In Teacher Man, Frank turns his attention to subjects closest to his heart: teaching - why it's so important, why it's so undervalued - and storytelling.  He tells of his own coming of age as a teacher, a storyteller and, ultimately, a writer.  Alternately humble and mischievous, down-trodden and rebellious, he instinctively identifies with the underdog.  From every one of these captivating pages it is clear from the start that he seized his students' attention by telling great stories.  And here he does it again, for us.

Soft cover, good condition.  Very minor signs of wear.  257 pages.
