The Adventures Of Franky Fabs
Volume One
by
Frank John Trousdell
Franky Fabs only wanted to live out his dream of playing professional hockey. But life has a way of handing out challenges and forcing choices, closing one door and opening another. Frank Trousdell shares his narrative of the struggle to survive and of learning that the only way forward is to pick himself up and carry on. Frank offers a unique take on life, revealing the events that made him the man he is today. His story is one of trials and tribulations, poor choices, and good choices made for all the wrong reasons. It’s also one of perseverance, of never losing sight of the dream of a stable life and being a strong-willed survivor in a world of sharks. In this first volume of Frank’s memoir, follow him from 1971 to 1993, from playing hockey and taking sociology at the University of North Dakota to marine policing to life insurance. Drama, desperate choices, unintended consequences, and heartache all fuel this Canadian boy’s story of adventure and survival.
"The Adventures of Franky Fabs is a rollicking memoir covering a search for love and joy amid tumult." -Foreword Clarion Review

He lives in Port Stanley, Ontario, with his life partner of nineteen years, Cheryl, their eight-year-old border collie, Charlie, and their six-year-old, white-footed black cat, Maud.
